The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:19:28 at Auckland 2026 put Blair Kiely on the age-group podium: 3rd of 32 in the 45–49 age group.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:20 quicker than the median and 22nd of 375. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:02 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Auckland 2026 and Auckland 2025 were 5:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
