The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jake Samuel finished 131st of 375 men in the Open division at Auckland 2026, in 1:24:45, faster than 65% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:13 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:35 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.
