The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Berlin 2026, Steffen Sauer crossed the line in 1:18:33: 330th of 1,097 men, faster than 70% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 82% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 60% on the stations. The wall balls were the standout, 1:13 quicker than the median and 280th of 1,097. Stronger after halfway: 1:20 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Frankfurt 2025 were 2:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
