The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:19:15 at Sydney 2026 put Barry O’Malley 202nd of 623 men in the Open division, ahead of 68% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 84% of the field beaten on the runs, 48% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:34 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:46 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Sydney 2025 were 3:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
