The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Lina Kaivos finished 163rd of 579 women in the Open division at Helsinki 2026, in 1:24:51, faster than 72% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 80% of the field beaten on the runs, 60% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 0:47 quicker than the median and 173rd of 579. A harder second half: 2:50 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Helsinki gave the field time back: about 2:57 faster than the average race this season, by 206 athletes who raced both.
