The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Steven Kontze finished 147th of 277 men in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:27:25.
The runs carried this race: faster than 68% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 47% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 2:38 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:52 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Hamburg 2025 were 2:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
