The race, in three figures
The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Setare Sameni at Istanbul 2026: 1:10:58, 12th of 416 women in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 2:48 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:06 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 7:37, was faster than 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Istanbul 2026 and Istanbul 1 2026 were 3:41 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
