The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Nicolo Balbo finished 157th of 1,122 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:11:06, faster than 86% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 2:02 on the median. Time in the roxzone, 7:03, 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.
