The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Sydney 2026, Angus Johnson & Jordan Smith crossed the line in 1:14:54: 312th of 664 men's teams, faster than 53% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 75% of the field beaten on the stations, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:45 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:32 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Sydney gained about 3:02.
