The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Izmir 2026, Emmanuel Odong crossed the line in 1:15:19: 19th of 173 men, faster than 89% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 95% of the field beaten on the runs, 73% on the stations. The race faded late: the second half went 1:36 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:55, was faster than 87% of the field.
That was 3:24 off the time at Bologna 2026.
