The race, in words

A station race more than a running one: 59% of the field beaten on the stations, against 32% on the runs. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 0:50 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:55 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Karlsruhe cost the whole field time: about 0:58 more than the average race this season, going by 766 athletes who raced both. 1:37 slower than at Hamburg 2024, the previous Open race.
