The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Joel Boychuk finished 583rd of 704 men in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:43:50.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:41 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 7:35 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Berlin 2025 were 2:44 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
