The race, in words

Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:47 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:35 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:56 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Perth gave the field time back: about 1:36 faster than the average race this season, by 331 athletes who raced both.
