The race, in words
Jenni Burtsov & Sonja Ahlqvist finished 733rd of 904 women's teams in the Doubles Open division at Helsinki 2026, in 1:35:36.
A station race more than a running one: 79% of the field beaten on the stations, against 8% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:31 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:03 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Helsinki gave the field time back: about 2:07 faster than the average race this season, by 250 teams who raced both.
