The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:39:10 at Cologne 2026 put Daniel Schäfer 684th of 924 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 42% of the field beaten on the stations, against 18% on the runs. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 0:44. The race faded late: the second half went 2:23 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2026 and Berlin 2025 were 1:29 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
