The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Hew Marshall finished 142nd of 595 men in the Open division at Brisbane 2024, in 1:18:21, faster than 76% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 87% of the field beaten on the runs, 60% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:22 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:41 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Brisbane 2024 and Sydney 2024 were 1:52 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
