The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Cristina Proca finished 345th of 579 women in the Open division at Helsinki 2026, in 1:35:03.
A station race more than a running one: 59% of the field beaten on the stations, against 39% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:59 on the median. A harder second half: 2:30 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Helsinki ran fast: the 206 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:57 quicker here than at their other races. An improvement of 13:02 on Madrid 2025.
