The race, in words
Sam Dobson finished 201st of 454 men in the Open division at Perth 2026, in 1:27:20, faster than 56% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 66% of the field beaten on the runs, 39% on the stations. On the sled push the field had the edge, by 1:02. The race faded late: the second half went 1:06 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
That was 1:59 off the time at Birmingham 2025.
