The stations carried this race: faster than 70% of the field across all eight, against 44% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:19 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:17 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Bilbao 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 6:01 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
