The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Laura Brendel finished 542nd of 784 women in the Open division at Berlin 2025, in 1:32:59.
A station race more than a running one: 44% of the field beaten on the stations, against 21% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:50 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:27 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 Berlin gained about 2:56.
