The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Merlin Smeenk finished 1,172nd of 1,883 men in the Open division at Frankfurt 2025, in 1:30:56.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:27 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:33 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Frankfurt 2025 and Maastricht 2025 were 4:10 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
