The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Manuel Grundy finished 714th of 1,587 men in the Open division at Sydney 2025, in 1:20:32, faster than 55% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 65% of the field across all eight, against 43% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:07 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:23 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2025 and Brisbane 2025 were 3:57 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
