The race, in three figures
The race, in words
MARTA Gomez Sanchez took 2nd of 42 in the 40–44 age group at Malaga 2026, in 1:13:38.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 4:44 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:25 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Malaga 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 5:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
