The race, in words
Brendan Eastman finished 727th of 1,581 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:23:56, faster than 54% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:41 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:06 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:36 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 1:22 faster than the average race this season, by 1,013 athletes who raced both.
