Progress against the field
From Hamburg 2025 to Berlin 2026, Ricarda Loer and Alexander Hofmann got 6:15 faster than the field.
The races barely moved for everyone else, so 6:03 faster on the clock is close to the whole story.
The largest gain on the field came from Hamburg 2025 → Vienna 2026: 5:35 in 127 days.
How this is worked out ⓘ
A finish time moves for two reasons: the athlete, and the race — its course, its floor, its day. For each pair of races in a row in one category, we take everyone who raced both and use the middle of how much they moved (the median) as "the race". Whatever is left is the athlete. Doubles are compared only when the same two people raced both, and told as the pair's; relays are left out. A pair with fewer than 15 athletes in common is not shown.
