The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Niels Zimmermann finished 1,037th of 1,386 men in the Open division at Geneva 2025, in 1:34:27.
A station race more than a running one: 38% of the field beaten on the stations, against 16% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:24. The race faded late: the second half went 1:16 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Geneva gained about 0:48. That was 2:09 off the time at Heerenveen 2025.
