The race, in words
Nicholas Temporali & Alexandra Brown finished 283rd of 366 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:28:24.
A station race more than a running one: 72% of the field beaten on the stations, against 10% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:41 on the median. A harder second half: 6:06 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.
