The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Vienna 2026, Hugh Crehan crossed the line in 1:20:00: 437th of 1,311 men, faster than 67% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 75% of the field beaten on the runs, 54% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:01 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:20 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. 1:03 slower than at Dublin 2025, the previous Open race.
