The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael Grob finished 1,293rd of 1,414 men in the Open division at Geneva 2026, in 1:53:09.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 3:18 slower than the median. A harder second half: 8:36 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 10:08 in the roxzone was slower than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Geneva 2026 and St. Gallen 2026 were 3:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
