The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Berlin 2025, Esteban Brandenburg crossed the line in 1:18:53: 830th of 1,851 men, faster than 55% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 69% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 41% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 1:22 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:50 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2025 and Cologne 2025 were 3:34 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
