The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Joachim Wolf finished 284th of 511 men in the Open division at Osaka 2026, in 1:36:25.
Legs and stations told different stories: 54% of the field beaten on the runs, 32% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 6:49 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:35 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Osaka gave the field time back: about 1:20 faster than the average race this season, by 777 athletes who raced both.
