The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:38:56 at Berlin 2026 put Patrick Walter 539th of 704 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 43% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:30 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 6:21 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Berlin ran slow: the 2,286 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:42 slower here than at their other races.
