The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Haydon took 2nd of 32 in the 45–49 age group at Auckland 2026, in 1:15:50.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:25 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 0:42 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:24 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Auckland 2026 and Auckland 2025 were 5:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
