The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ashton Leota finished 453rd of 517 men in the Open division at Sydney 2025, in 1:40:47.
A station race more than a running one: 41% of the field beaten on the stations, against 7% on the runs. A harder second half: 9:00 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 14:52 in the roxzone was slower than 97% of the field.
Sydney gave the field time back: about 1:48 faster than the average race this season, by 951 athletes who raced both.
