The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Guadalajara 2026, Carlos Enrique Palafox crossed the line in 1:23:34: 253rd of 1,361 men, faster than 81% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 91% of the field beaten on the runs, 70% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the sled push: 1:32 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:34 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Guadalajara ran slow: the 543 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 3:20 slower here than at their other races.
