The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bilbao 2026, Mikel Lopez Sarasua crossed the line in 1:11:58: 439th of 1,500 men, faster than 71% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:10 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:15 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:34, ahead of 85% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Bilbao 2026 and Bilbao 2025 were 3:47 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
