The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rafał Dembowski finished 613th of 1,349 men in the Open division at Gdansk 2026, in 1:26:14, faster than 55% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 82% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 29% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the farmers carry, 1:39 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:58 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Gdansk 2026 and Warsaw 2026 were 1:38 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
