The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:25:50 at Berlin 2026 put Volker Marks 349th of 704 men in the Open division, ahead of 50% of the field.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 0:54 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:17 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Mechelen 2026 were 1:35 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
