The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Gdansk 2026, Patrycja Matczak crossed the line in 1:29:09: 286th of 775 women, faster than 63% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 72% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:00 quicker than the median and 188th of 775. A harder second half: 2:08 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Gdansk gained about 2:15.
