The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mikel Guével finished 680th of 1,006 men in the Open division at Bologna 2026, in 1:28:54.
The stations carried this race: faster than 54% of the field across all eight, against 17% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:18. A harder second half: 3:33 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Turin 2026 were 3:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
