The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Riga 2026, Pontus Willbo crossed the line in 1:23:47: 351st of 882 men, faster than 60% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:28 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:39 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 5:24 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Riga 2026 and Stockholm 2025 were 2:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
