The race, in three figures
The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Matthew Woods at Brisbane 2025: 1:09:40, 129th of 1,368 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 94% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 74% on the stations. The race faded late: the second half went 1:13 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:57, ahead of 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Brisbane 2025 and Auckland 2025 were 3:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
