Over a distance of 89.41 km, the German clocked a time of 1:54:29, averaging 46.9 km per hour.
His highest speed of the day was 65 kph, and the total elevation gain was only 39 meters. His power average was to 340 watts average and 347 watts normalized power. Funk had an average cadence of 82 rpm, meaning 82 rotations per minute, which is rather low. During the bike leg, his heart rate was 172 beats per minute on average and his maximum was 180 bpm.
