The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Darryl Pereira finished 423rd of 623 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:33:54.
Legs and stations told different stories: 48% of the field beaten on the runs, 23% on the stations. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:08. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:13 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Brisbane 2026 were 3:30 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
