The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Stephen Kerin finished 690th of 871 men in the Open division at Oslo 2026, in 1:38:41.
Legs and stations told different stories: 43% of the field beaten on the runs, 9% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:11 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:17 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
1:53 slower than at Helsinki 2026, the previous Open race.
