The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Perth 2026, Mel Symon crossed the line in 1:25:44: 176th of 531 women, faster than 67% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 79% of the field beaten on the runs, 49% on the stations. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 1:21.
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.
