The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Klaus Knese finished 396th of 455 men in the Pro division at Cologne 2026, in 1:46:31.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 4:36 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:47 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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.
