The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rhys Madigan finished 1,263rd of 1,587 men in the Open division at Sydney 2025, in 1:35:39.
Legs and stations told different stories: 39% of the field beaten on the runs, 9% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 7:56 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 11:42 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Sydney ran fast: the 951 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:48 quicker here than at their other races.
