The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:13:23 at Karlsruhe 2026 put Paul Forster 133rd of 1,003 men in the Open division, ahead of 87% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:54 quicker than the median and 26th of 1,003. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:12 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:03, was faster than 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Karlsruhe 2026 and Vienna 2026 were 1:38 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
