The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Alvaro Gonzalez finished 967th of 1,500 men in the Open division at Bilbao 2026, in 1:23:11.
Legs and stations told different stories: 46% of the field beaten on the runs, 24% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:43 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:14 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Bilbao 2026 and Bilbao 2025 were 3:47 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
