The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Sydney 2025, Ben Perkins crossed the line in 1:14:09: 421st of 1,587 men, faster than 74% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 84% of the field beaten on the stations, against 59% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 2:00 quicker than the median and 112th of 1,587. Stronger after halfway: 2:30 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Sydney ran fast: the 951 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:48 quicker here than at their other races.
