How to read

Place is the position among timed finishers in the same race, division and gender; a doubles place is the team's. Runs is the organiser's official run total (it can differ from the eight laps added up by a few seconds), stations the eight stations added up, and roxzone the time moving between them. † This venue did not time the roxzone: the figure is the finish minus runs and stations, and part of the walk is inside the run laps there, so it is shorter than at other venues. A dash in runs, stations and roxzone on a result from the live results service means the splits are not in yet (finish time only). The age group is the one entered for that race; for a team it is the team’s age group. A dash means the organiser did not publish that number for the result.
