The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:31:41 at Birmingham 2026 put Craig Michael 440th of 646 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 47% of the field beaten on the stations, against 17% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:01 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:27 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Glasgow 2025 were 2:34 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
