The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Cologne 2026, Josh Hammers crossed the line in 1:21:01: 190th of 455 men, faster than 58% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 67% of the field beaten on the runs, 46% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 2:00 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:09 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2026 and Hamburg 2025 were 2:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
