The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bologna 2026, Nicoletta Labianca crossed the line in 1:25:52: 161st of 424 women, faster than 62% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 85% of the field beaten on the stations, against 47% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:53 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:13 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Turin 2026 were 4:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
