The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:40:03 at Bilbao 2026 put James Bentley 1,364th of 1,500 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 24% of the field beaten on the stations, against 3% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:40 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:08 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Bilbao ran fast: the 741 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 3:22 quicker here than at their other races.
