The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Vanessa Stäbe finished 190th of 230 women in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:46:30.
A station race more than a running one: 41% of the field beaten on the stations, against 8% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:06 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:40 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Berlin ran slow: the 1,345 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:57 slower here than at their other races. That was 8:03 off the time at Frankfurt 2025.
