The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Atanas Atanasov finished 448th of 913 men in the Open division at Helsinki 2026, in 1:23:14, faster than 51% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 78% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:16 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:52 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Helsinki ran fast: the 434 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:49 quicker here than at their other races.
