The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bilbao 2026, Abel Sampedro crossed the line in 1:15:14: 609th of 1,500 men, faster than 59% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 75% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 53% on the stations. The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 0:44 ahead of the median. On the sled push the field had the edge, by 0:37.
Athletes who raced both Bilbao 2026 and Valencia 2025 were 6:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
