The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ben Iacono finished 513th of 1,122 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:24:02, faster than 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 71% of the field beaten on the stations, against 38% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:10 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:30 better 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.
