The race, in words
Pietro Putignano finished 210th of 321 men in the Open division at Karlsruhe 2026, in 1:34:12.
A station race more than a running one: 48% of the field beaten on the stations, against 25% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:30. A harder second half: 2:50 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a slow day in Karlsruhe. Measured against their other races this season, the people who raced here lost about 1:02. That was 2:21 off the time at Maastricht 2026.
