The race, in words
Mikayla Fielding & Danielle Quick finished 551st of 693 women's teams in the Doubles Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:36:29.
A station race more than a running one: 52% of the field beaten on the stations, against 13% on the runs. A remarkably even set of stations, none more than 0:14 from the median. A harder second half: 1:53 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 3:18 faster than the average race this season, by 1,108 teams who raced both.
