The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:12:10 at Bologna 2026 put Arnaud Saint-Sauveur on the age-group podium: 3rd of 42 in the 50–54 age group.
Legs and stations told different stories: 89% of the field beaten on the runs, 69% on the stations. The wall balls were the standout, 1:00 quicker than the median and 204th of 799. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:01 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Turin 2026 were 3:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
