The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Vegard Sumstad finished 733rd of 935 men in the Open division at Oslo 2025, in 1:39:10.
A station race more than a running one: 46% of the field beaten on the stations, against 10% on the runs. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:22 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:34 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Oslo gained about 0:47.
