The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Kieran Lim finished 761st of 1,122 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:32:05.
A station race more than a running one: 47% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:53 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:33 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 1:22 faster than the average race this season, by 1,013 athletes who raced both.
