The race, in words
1:31:52 at Istanbul 2026 put Çağatay Şahin 461st of 743 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 56% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:31 on the median. A harder second half: 1:10 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Istanbul gained about 3:07.
