The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Stefan Mertens finished 980th of 1,883 men in the Open division at Frankfurt 2025, in 1:27:03.
The stations carried this race: faster than 56% of the field across all eight, against 36% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:56 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:36 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Frankfurt 2025 and Frankfurt 2024 were 1:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
