The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Nathan Jones finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2026, in 1:06:15 for 41st of 646 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:35 quicker than the median and 40th of 646. Stronger after halfway: 1:51 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:35, was faster than 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Glasgow 2026 were 2:54 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
