The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Barcelona 2026, Marco Grübl crossed the line in 1:10:50: 83rd of 643 men, faster than 87% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 94% of the field beaten on the stations, against 68% on the runs. Stronger after halfway: 2:18 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:30, was faster than 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Barcelona 2026 and Stuttgart 2025 were 6:04 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
