The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:43:09 at Brisbane 2026 put Cliff Kovacs 199th of 237 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 33% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:14 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 7:16 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Brisbane 2026 and Perth 2025 were 3:28 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
