The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Raphael Ehlers finished 660th of 966 men in the Open division at Heerenveen 2026, in 1:31:05.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 3:01 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Heerenveen 2026 and Hamburg 2025 were 4:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
