The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Okay I finished 482nd of 743 men in the Open division at Istanbul 2026, in 1:33:36.
On the farmers carry the field had the edge, by 1:27. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:56 better against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Istanbul gained about 3:07.
