The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:27 at Berlin 2026 put Philipp Koch 560th of 1,097 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 70% of the field beaten on the runs, 31% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 2:00 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:16 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Berlin ran slow: the 2,286 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:42 slower here than at their other races. 11:14 slower than at Cologne 2026, the previous Open race.
