The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Simen Grahnstedt finished 496th of 871 men in the Open division at Oslo 2026, in 1:27:49.
Legs and stations told different stories: 61% of the field beaten on the runs, 24% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 4:50 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:49 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Oslo 2026 and Oslo 2025 were 2:40 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
