The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Furkan Bilgiç finished 153rd of 222 men in the Pro division at Istanbul 2026, in 1:23:37.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 0:32 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:23 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:51 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Istanbul 2026 and Istanbul 1 2026 were 2:04 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
