The race, in words

In the Open division at Bologna 2026, David Merlo crossed the line in 1:11:51: 150th of 799 men, faster than 81% of the field.

The wall balls were the standout, 1:38 quicker than the median and 77th of 799. Stronger after halfway: 1:02 better against the middle of the field than before it.

Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Verona 2025 were 3:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
