The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Julian Ferber finished 834th of 924 men in the Open division at Cologne 2026, in 1:54:31.
If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 3:48 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 5:56 better against the middle of the field than the first. 10:36 in the roxzone was slower than 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2026 and Berlin 2025 were 1:29 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
