The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Sydney 2025, Matty James crossed the line in 1:16:44: 126th of 333 men, faster than 62% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 71% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 50% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 0:31 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:17 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2025 and Auckland 2025 were 6:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
