The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael Barnes finished 286th of 333 men in the Pro division at Sydney 2025, in 1:37:30.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 6:02. The race faded late: the second half went 6:05 worse against the middle of the field than the first. 9:36 in the roxzone was slower than 85% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2025 and Auckland 2025 were 6:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
