The race, in words
In the Open division at Berlin 2025, Benno Bernhardt crossed the line in 1:19:12: 856th of 1,851 men, faster than 54% of the field.

Berlin gave the field time back: about 3:21 faster than the average race this season, by 1,897 athletes who raced both. Benno Bernhardt's fastest of 3 finishes in the Open division.
