The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matti Hiekkala finished 887th of 1,414 men in the Open division at Geneva 2026, in 1:30:34.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:28 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:47 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Geneva 2026 and Helsinki 2026 were 5:00 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
