The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Manuel Pozueco Alifa finished 108th of 609 men in the Open division at Istanbul 1 2026, in 1:15:36, faster than 82% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 2:52 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:51 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Istanbul 1 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 3:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
