The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Marie-Eve Menger finished 889th of 889 women in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 3:34:49.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 22:44 behind the median. A harder second half: 55:46 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 56:44 in the roxzone was slower than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Berlin 2025 were 4:38 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
