The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Daniele Diluca finished in the top 10% of the field at Bologna 2026, in 1:06:40 for 43rd of 799 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:29 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:27 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:58, was faster than 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Verona 2025 were 3:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
