The race, in words
Max Chao & Penny Lin finished 633rd of 1,099 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:24:39.
A station race more than a running one: 59% of the field beaten on the stations, against 37% on the runs. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 1:08. Stronger after halfway: 1:02 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Sydney ran fast: the 884 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:11 quicker here than at their other races.
