The race, in words
In the Open division at Sydney 2025, Ben Evans crossed the line in 1:18:35: 208th of 517 men, faster than 60% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 72% of the field beaten on the stations, against 48% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 1:19 quicker than the median and 15th of 517. Stronger after halfway: 1:02 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 1:48 faster than the average race this season, by 951 athletes who raced both.
