The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Piotr Kula & Lukasz Ciszewski finished 319th of 508 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Gdansk 2026, in 1:18:40.
A station race more than a running one: 59% of the field beaten on the stations, against 29% on the runs. No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:15 of the median. A harder second half: 1:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Gdansk ran fast: the 241 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:41 quicker here than at their other races.
