The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cologne 2025, Gérard Stengele crossed the line in 1:19:16: 399th of 1,182 men, faster than 66% of the field.
A harder second half: 1:34 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2025 and Karlsruhe 2024 were 3:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
