The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Berlin 2026, George Jaraba crossed the line in 1:16:05: 248th of 1,097 men, faster than 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 84% of the field beaten on the runs, 60% on the stations. A harder second half: 3:02 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 11:06, ahead of 90% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Frankfurt 2025 were 2:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
