The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:54:33 at Istanbul 2026 put Rachel MEJANI 339th of 416 women in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 32% of the field beaten on the runs, 12% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 4:47. The race faded late: the second half went 2:59 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Istanbul ran fast: the 162 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:43 quicker here than at their other races. 3:10 faster than at Sydney 2025, the previous Open race.
