The race, in three figures
The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Nathan Lyons at Sydney 2026: 1:06:35, 29th of 623 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 3:18 quicker than the median and 2nd of 623. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:36 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 6:30, was faster than 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and APAC Championship Brisbane 2026 were 3:11 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
