The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Patrick Friedrich finished 847th of 1,097 men in the Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:40:39.
A station race more than a running one: 46% of the field beaten on the stations, against 20% on the runs. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:46 better against the middle of the field than the first. 21:52 in the roxzone was slower than 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2026 and Vienna 2025 were 1:29 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
