The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Marco Romanini finished 455th of 799 men in the Open division at Bologna 2026, in 1:23:59.
The runs carried this race: faster than 71% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 21% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:50 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:16 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Verona 2025 were 3:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
