The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Alex Crossan finished 1,221st of 1,581 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:41:08.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:06 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:38 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Auckland 2026 were 5:56 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
