The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ashleigh Ludemann finished 181st of 467 women in the Open division at Auckland 2026, in 1:37:03, faster than 61% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 72% of the field beaten on the runs, 48% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:38. A harder second half: 1:31 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 4:10 slower at Auckland 2026 than at Sydney 2025, which makes this time better than it looks.
