The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cologne 2026, Roman Gutte crossed the line in 1:12:51: 120th of 924 men, faster than 87% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:16 on the median. A harder second half: 1:16 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:55, was faster than 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2026 and Frankfurt 2025 were 2:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
