The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Hamburg 2026, Marco Handel crossed the line in 1:18:50: 269th of 653 men, faster than 59% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 78% of the field beaten on the stations, against 37% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:14 quicker than the median and 111th of 653.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2026 and Berlin 2025 were 2:03 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
