The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:17:14 at Birmingham 2026 put Gareth Hancock 210th of 646 men in the Open division, ahead of 68% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:03 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:04 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Rome 2026 were 3:12 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
