The race, in words
1:24:11 at Sydney 2026 put Steven Zakir & Vanessan Zakir 356th of 596 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 67% of the field beaten on the stations, against 30% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:47 on the median. A harder second half: 1:47 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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.
