POST-RACE DATA ANALYSIS - SYDNEY 2025 - Kiros's Course Record: Analyzing the Sub-60 Second Decisive Split

Hailemaryam Kiros’s 2:06:06 course record hinged on a single, clean break. Our tracking data confirms his decisive separation occurred precisely around the 30 km mark where he executed a split that was over 30 seconds faster than his compatriot Addisu Gobena. This burst of power gave him the necessary momentum to maintain a solo effort for the final 12 kilometers and secure a 10-second margin of victory. The fact that the course record was broken suggests the new World Major status attracted not just participants, but a genuine commitment to elite-level pacing from the start.

The narrow six-second margin over Evans Chebet (2:07:45) confirms that the race was decided purely in the final, agonizing kilometer in Central Park. Nageeye’s ability to find that final acceleration, or "kick," after navigating the bridges and hills, shows superior management of his anaerobic reserve. On a challenging course where times are generally slower, the tight finish highlights that the pacing strategy was conservative early, leading to a maximal effort finish.
