The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Morales finished 1,248th of 1,500 men in the Open division at Bilbao 2026, in 1:32:15.
A station race more than a running one: 40% of the field beaten on the stations, against 5% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:13 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:08 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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.
