Course Conditions
Compared to last year’s heatwave (with all-time record temperatures for Frankfurt), this year was mild – but with 30°C it was still quite warm for Germany. This lead to faster conditions that last year (by roughly 14 minutes, 4 on the bike and 10 on the run), even if the slightly longer bike course (small changes because of construction – numbers quoted before the race were between 182.6k and 184k) and the heat still led to “slow” conditions for Frankfurt. No course records were broken – maybe Patrik could have sped up a bit in the last k by not celebrating quite as much – in the end he was just 33 seconds over the run course record still held by Jan Frodeno. Still, it was only the second time we’ve seen a sub-2:40 marathon in Frankfurt.
