The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Monterrey 2026, Ronaldo Martínez Güereca crossed the line in 1:38:24: 583rd of 1,279 men, faster than 54% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 87% of the field beaten on the runs, 30% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:46 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 5:18 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Monterrey ran slow: the 435 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 3:35 slower here than at their other races.
