The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bilbao 2026, Emmanuel Espiasse crossed the line in 1:12:01: 443rd of 1,500 men, faster than 71% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:54 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:17 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:10 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Bilbao ran fast: the 741 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 3:22 quicker here than at their other races.
