The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Aj Mudford finished in the top 10% of the field at Sydney 2026, in 1:08:22 for 113th of 1,581 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:19 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:16 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 6:36, was faster than 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Auckland 2026 were 5:56 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
