The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chiara Drews finished 179th of 583 women in the Open division at Cologne 2026, in 1:28:27, faster than 69% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 79% of the field beaten on the runs, 54% on the stations. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:09 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:02 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2026 and Cologne 2025 were 4:26 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
