The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Isaiah Sofa & Kema Hawke finished 445th of 542 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at Auckland 2026, in 1:42:51.
A station race more than a running one: 44% of the field beaten on the stations, against 15% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 0:49 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:57 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Auckland ran slow: the 311 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 3:46 slower here than at their other races.
