The race, in words
Darren Whitby & Callum Vanderent finished 465th of 664 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Sydney 2026, in 1:22:58.
A station race more than a running one: 52% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 1:05. A harder second half: 2:12 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 3:02 faster than the average race this season, by 682 teams who raced both.
