The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:32 at Birmingham 2026 put Tony Roberts 766th of 1,442 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 55% of the field beaten on the runs, 29% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 4:06 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:33 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Manchester 2024 were 7:07 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
