The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:44:04 at Karlsruhe 2026 put Thomas Rudolph 784th of 1,003 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 37% of the field beaten on the stations, against 15% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 2:41 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:49 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Karlsruhe 2026 and Frankfurt 2025 were 1:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
