The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:25:31 at Hamburg 2026 put Sven Herrmann on the age-group podium: 3rd of 13 in the 55–59 age group.
Legs and stations told different stories: 78% of the field beaten on the runs, 47% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:37 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:37 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2026 and Hamburg 2025 were 3:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
