The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Berlin 2026, Lena Gürster crossed the line in 1:29:25: 221st of 889 women, faster than 75% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:56 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:45 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:20 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Berlin ran slow: the 1,345 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:57 slower here than at their other races.
