The race, in words
Sal Scott finished 414th of 623 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:33:07.
Legs and stations told different stories: 59% of the field beaten on the runs, 22% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 6:45 behind the median. A harder second half: 10:06 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Sydney ran fast: the 1,013 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:22 quicker here than at their other races.
