The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Kelsey Van Der Laan finished 183rd of 327 women in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:34:15.
A station race more than a running one: 59% of the field beaten on the stations, against 32% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:12 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:07 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Barcelona gained about 1:31. That was 1:16 off the time at Mechelen 2026.
