The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Vienna 2026, Stefan Pilz crossed the line in 1:18:45: 382nd of 1,311 men, faster than 71% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 78% of the field beaten on the stations, against 58% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:17 quicker than the median and 158th of 1,311. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:17 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Vienna ran fast: the 705 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:32 quicker here than at their other races. 1:18 slower than at Wien 2023, the previous Open race.
