The race, in words
Burkan Çilingir finished 380th of 609 men in the Open division at Istanbul 1 2026, in 1:33:09.
A station race more than a running one: 83% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 2:50 quicker than the median and 22nd of 609. The race faded late: the second half went 3:38 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Istanbul 1 ran fast: the 281 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:59 quicker here than at their other races.
