The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Sydney 2026, Nick Savage crossed the line in 1:19:58: 554th of 1,581 men, faster than 65% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 87% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 39% on the stations. Stronger after halfway: 2:22 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 6:57, was faster than 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Sydney 2025 were 3:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
