The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ana Marina Avram Rusu finished 382nd of 425 women in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 2:00:49.
A station race more than a running one: 51% of the field beaten on the stations, against 5% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 4:38 quicker than the median and 27th of 425. The race faded late: the second half went 2:31 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Barcelona gave the field time back: about 1:31 faster than the average race this season, by 540 athletes who raced both. 1:15 faster than at Bologna 2026, the previous Open race.
