The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Hamburg 2026, Markus Laudenbach crossed the line in 1:27:03: 540th of 1,103 men, faster than 51% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 64% of the field beaten on the stations, against 38% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:16 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:19 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2026 and Berlin 2026 were 2:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
