The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Sydney 2026, Laura Rojas & Andres Suárez crossed the line in 1:20:52: 511th of 1,099 mixed teams, faster than 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 72% of the field beaten on the stations, against 45% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:57 on the median. A harder second half: 2:53 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 2:11 faster than the average race this season, by 884 teams who raced both.
