The race, in words

Legs and stations told different stories: 77% of the field beaten on the runs, 48% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:39 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:46 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.
