The race, in words
Marco Ziemert finished 528th of 686 men in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:36:44.
Legs and stations told different stories: 42% of the field beaten on the runs, 12% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 5:45 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:06 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Berlin ran slow: the 2,286 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:42 slower here than at their other races.
