The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Copenhagen 2026, Michael Williams crossed the line in 1:22:28: 372nd of 900 men, faster than 59% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 82% of the field beaten on the runs, 34% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:26 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:51 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Copenhagen 2026 and Oslo 2025 were 1:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
