The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cancun 2026, Javier Yglesias Palmero crossed the line in 1:38:18: 308th of 768 men, faster than 60% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 87% of the field beaten on the stations, against 46% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 3:18 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 15:43 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cancun 2026 and Acapulco 2025 were 3:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
