The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Carstens finished 1,235th of 1,311 men in the Open division at Vienna 2026, in 1:54:34.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:28. A harder second half: 5:02 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 9:05 in the roxzone was slower than 91% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Vienna 2026 and Hamburg 2025 were 2:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
