The race, in words
Margarita Dvorkina finished 279th of 327 women in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:50:12.
A station race more than a running one: 38% of the field beaten on the stations, against 5% on the runs. A harder second half: 2:36 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 9:24, behind 85% of the field.
Barcelona gave the field time back: about 1:31 faster than the average race this season, by 540 athletes who raced both.
