The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:10:59 at Brisbane 2026 put Gary El-Helou 69th of 615 men in the Open division, ahead of 89% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 1:08 quicker than the median and 51st of 615. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:47 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:17, ahead of 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Brisbane 2026 and Sydney 2024 were 3:06 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
