The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael Pang finished 303rd of 1,122 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:16:21, faster than 73% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 86% of the field beaten on the stations, against 58% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:11 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:51 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2026 and Brisbane 2026 were 3:30 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
