The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Vienna 2026, Markus Buchmann crossed the line in 1:25:41: 642nd of 1,311 men, faster than 51% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 73% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 32% on the stations. The sled push cost the most time: 1:26 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 4:39 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Vienna 2026 and Frankfurt 2025 were 1:53 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
