The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:29:48 at Berlin 2026 put Can Aksu 161st of 277 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 28% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 2:08 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 7:51 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Istanbul 1 2026 were 3:25 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
