The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthias Walter finished 227th of 381 men in the Open division at Hamburg 2026, in 1:32:21.
Legs and stations told different stories: 50% of the field beaten on the runs, 25% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:46. Stronger after halfway: 3:03 better against the middle of the field 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.
