The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:41:00 at Sydney 2026 put Alec Draffin 493rd of 623 men in the Open division.
If there was time left out there, it was on the farmers carry, 2:11 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:03 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.
