The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:20:14 at Birmingham 2026 put Adam Grinsell 161st of 359 men in the Open division, ahead of 55% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:39 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 0:33 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:06 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
