The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Stephen Walsh finished 514th of 686 men in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:35:40.
The runs carried this race: faster than 40% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 19% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 2:38 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:04 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Mechelen 2026 were 1:35 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
