The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:08:59 at Perth 2026 put Matthew Knox on the age-group podium: 3rd of 48 in the 45–49 age group.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:14 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:08 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Perth 2026 and Sydney 2026 were 1:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
