The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Marlon Ziehl finished 397th of 494 men in the Open division at Cologne 2025, in 1:39:32.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:17 on the median. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 2:33. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:38 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cologne 2025 and Frankfurt 2024 were 2:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
