The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Birk Alwes finished 897th of 1,103 men in the Open division at Hamburg 2026, in 1:44:10.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:28. The race faded late: the second half went 2:16 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2026 and Cologne 2026 were 2:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
