The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Istanbul 1 2026, Carina Dienbauer & Patrick Apfelthaler crossed the line in 1:18:26: 160th of 351 mixed teams, faster than 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 77% of the field beaten on the stations, against 45% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 0:44 quicker than the median and 48th of 351. A harder second half: 1:27 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Istanbul 1 gained about 1:51.
