The race, in words
1:40:21 at Hamburg 2024 put Ben Petersen 1,020th of 1,248 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 35% of the field beaten on the stations, against 10% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:24 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:40 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Hamburg gave the field time back: about 1:42 faster than the average race this season, by 910 athletes who raced both.
