The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bologna 2026, Francesca Fiorini crossed the line in 1:28:14: 195th of 424 women, faster than 54% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:43 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:02 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:33 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Bologna 2026 and Verona 2025 were 3:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
