The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Bastien Espallier finished 1,299th of 1,500 men in the Open division at Bilbao 2026, in 1:34:55.
The runs carried this race: faster than 32% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 8% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:37. A harder second half: 2:50 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Bilbao 2026 and Paris 2025 were 6:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
