The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matt Dakai finished 1,050th of 1,581 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:33:41.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:41. The race faded late: the second half went 4:21 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Sydney 2025 were 3:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
