The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Istanbul 2026, Kemal Erdoğdu crossed the line in 1:17:26: 212th of 743 men, faster than 72% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:21 quicker than the median and 45th of 743. The sled push cost the most time: 0:46 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:48 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Istanbul 2026 and Istanbul 1 2026 were 5:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
