The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:54:37 at Hamburg 2026 put Merlin Moelter 498th of 579 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 44% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 6% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 7:25. A harder second half: 5:57 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2026 and Berlin 2026 were 2:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
