The race, in words
Kim Emmerich & Felix Töpfer finished 399th of 530 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at Berlin 2026, in 1:26:32.
A station race more than a running one: 42% of the field beaten on the stations, against 18% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:35 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:00 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Berlin ran slow: the 1,748 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:39 slower here than at their other races.
