The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rachael Thurston finished 303rd of 467 women in the Open division at Auckland 2026, in 1:52:00.
A station race more than a running one: 49% of the field beaten on the stations, against 28% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 0:50. The race faded late: the second half went 2:00 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Auckland ran slow: the 276 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 5:17 slower here than at their other races.
