The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ryan Davidson finished 390th of 517 men in the Open division at Sydney 2025, in 1:31:18.
A station race more than a running one: 39% of the field beaten on the stations, against 17% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:47 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:29 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 1:48 faster than the average race this season, by 951 athletes who raced both.
