The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Barcelona 2026, Christophe Mignard & Belghazi Inès crossed the line in 1:10:19: 177th of 1,013 mixed teams, faster than 83% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 92% of the field beaten on the stations, against 70% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:07 on the median. A harder second half: 1:34 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Barcelona gained about 1:27.
