The race, in words
Stathis Malintsis finished 439th of 616 men in the Open division at Athens 2026, in 1:35:26.
A station race more than a running one: 42% of the field beaten on the stations, against 22% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:55 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:53 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athens ran fast: the 284 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:07 quicker here than at their other races.
