Her overall time of 01:43:11 is respectable, but there are areas where she can improve for future races. In terms of pacing, Falklander may need to work on finding a more consistent speed throughout the race, as some of her splits were slower than average.

Strengths:
Falklander demonstrated strength and skill in several segments of the race. Her sled push and sled pull times were notably faster than average, indicating that she is strong and efficient in these movements. Additionally, her times in the farmers carry and sandbag lunges were faster than average, suggesting that she has good endurance and stability in carrying heavy loads.

Areas for Improvement:

1. Running 1: Falklander's time in the first running segment was 02:26 slower than average. To improve this, she should focus on increasing her speed and endurance through interval training and tempo runs. Incorporating hill sprints and fartlek runs into her training routine can also help improve her running performance.

2. Roxzone: Falklander's time in the roxzone was 00:56 slower than average. This indicates that she may need to work on her overall fitness and transition time. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) and circuit training can help improve her overall fitness and reduce the time spent in the roxzone.

3. Burpees Broad Jump: Falklander's time in this segment was 00:45 slower than average.
