The race, in words
In the Open division at Malaga 2026, Francisco Sánchez González crossed the line in 1:06:18: 112th of 1,036 men, faster than 89% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 97% of the field beaten on the stations, against 71% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:18 quicker than the median and 5th of 1,036. The race faded late: the second half went 4:53 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Malaga ran fast: the 1,071 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:51 quicker here than at their other races.
