The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Luke Sleight finished 408th of 517 men in the Open division at Sydney 2025, in 1:32:56.
A station race more than a running one: 36% of the field beaten on the stations, against 15% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 2:12 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:41 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 5:52 faster at Sydney 2025 than at Brisbane 2024, a quicker course than most.
