The race, in three figures
The race, in words
James Westacott finished 815th of 1,122 men in the Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:34:16.
Legs and stations told different stories: 45% of the field beaten on the runs, 19% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 6:34. The race faded late: the second half went 7:04 worse 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.
