The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Malaga 2026, Matthew Wellings crossed the line in 1:12:59: 135th of 474 men, faster than 72% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 0:50 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:23 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Malaga 2026 and Valencia 2025 were 6:05 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
