The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:38:10 at Birmingham 2026 put David Bolton 1,061st of 1,442 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 39% of the field beaten on the runs, 15% on the stations. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 5:54. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:43 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Glasgow 2026 were 2:54 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
