The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gauthier Ribstein finished 788th of 1,158 men in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:28:57.
Legs and stations told different stories: 82% of the field beaten on the runs, 10% on the stations. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 5:02. A harder second half: 5:33 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Barcelona ran fast: the 1,177 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:27 quicker here than at their other races.
