The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Perth 2026, Elaine Van Der Meer crossed the line in 1:23:35: 149th of 531 women, faster than 72% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 79% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 59% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:07 on the median. Quick through the roxzone: 4:29, ahead of 85% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Perth 2026 and APAC Championship Brisbane 2026 were 2:06 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
