The race, in words
Juan Pablo Méndez Paredes finished 662nd of 1,279 men in the Open division at Monterrey 2026, in 1:41:10.
A station race more than a running one: 64% of the field beaten on the stations, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:51 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:18 better 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.
