The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthew Brook finished 523rd of 696 men in the Open division at Sydney 2024, in 1:31:39.
Legs and stations told different stories: 43% of the field beaten on the runs, 16% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 4:46. A harder second half: 4:16 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Sydney 2024 and Sydney 2023 were 7:05 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
