The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Bülent Özcelik finished 110th of 173 men in the Open division at Izmir 2026, in 1:41:28.
A station race more than a running one: 49% of the field beaten on the stations, against 20% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 0:36 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 8:27 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
3:52 slower than at Berlin 2026, the previous Open race.
