The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gaetan Gianni won the Open division at Barcelona 2026 in 53:44, first of 549 men.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:55 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:19 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 3:24, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Barcelona 2026 and Toulouse 2026 were 1:32 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
