The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Martin Kienl finished 789th of 1,311 men in the Open division at Vienna 2026, in 1:29:07.
Legs and stations told different stories: 67% of the field beaten on the runs, 21% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 3:34 slower than the median. A harder second half: 4:33 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Vienna ran fast: the 705 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:32 quicker here than at their other races. That was 1:46 off the time at Vienna 2025.
