The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sylvain Caron finished 375th of 549 men in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:29:08.
A station race more than a running one: 46% of the field beaten on the stations, against 25% on the runs. The farmers carry cost the most time: 0:46 slower than the median. A harder second half: 4:59 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Barcelona 2026 and Rome 2025 were 5:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
