The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gary El-Helou finished 80th of 636 men in the Open division at Perth 2026, in 1:10:12, faster than 87% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:00 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:21 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Perth 2026 and Brisbane 2026 were 3:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
