The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Melissa Ross finished 127th of 531 women in the Open division at Perth 2026, in 1:22:15, faster than 76% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 82% of the field beaten on the stations, against 62% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:46 quicker than the median and 75th of 531. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:10 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Perth 2026 and Brisbane 2026 were 2:45 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
