The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Karlsruhe 2020, Thomas Martin crossed the line in 1:23:57: 75th of 331 men, faster than 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 94% of the field beaten on the runs, 41% on the stations. The sled pull cost the most time: 1:02 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:00 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Karlsruhe ran slow: the 167 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:26 slower here than at their other races.
