The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:28:42 at Frankfurt 2024 put Michael Rühl 905th of 1,480 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 47% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 26% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:49. A harder second half: 2:44 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Frankfurt 2024 and Frankfurt 2023 were 1:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
