The race, in words
1:29:22 at Istanbul 2026 put Simone Barends 149th of 416 women in the Open division, ahead of 64% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 72% of the field beaten on the stations, against 52% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 1:45 quicker than the median and 55th of 416.
Istanbul gave the field time back: about 2:43 faster than the average race this season, by 162 athletes who raced both. 5:30 faster than at Rotterdam 2026, the previous Open race.
