The race, in words

A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 8% on the runs. A harder second half: 2:33 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 9:00, behind 89% of the field.
Rimini ran slow: the 232 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:04 slower here than at their other races.
