The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bologna 2026, Alan Rimondi crossed the line in 1:12:43: 173rd of 799 men, faster than 78% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 84% of the field beaten on the stations, against 64% on the runs. A harder second half: 2:46 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 5:17, ahead of 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Milan 2023 were 12:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
