The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Brisbane 2026, Harry Purcell crossed the line in 1:19:53: 92nd of 237 men, faster than 61% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:32 ahead of the median. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:35. Stronger after halfway: 1:18 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Brisbane 2026 and Auckland 2026 were 3:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
