The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:58 at Oslo 2026 put Espen Nilsen 203rd of 273 men in the Pro division.
A station race more than a running one: 49% of the field beaten on the stations, against 14% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:11. A harder second half: 1:24 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Oslo 2026 and Oslo 2025 were 3:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
