The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:43:50 at Berlin 2026 put Alessio Di Benedetto 899th of 1,097 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 31% of the field beaten on the stations, against 10% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:18 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:23 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
The field ran 2:59 slower at Berlin 2026 than at Warsaw 2026, which makes this time better than it looks.
