The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ernesto Botella finished 495th of 1,158 men in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:19:37, faster than 57% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:09 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:33. The race faded late: the second half went 4:39 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Barcelona 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 5:21 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
