The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Bilbao 2026, Mikel Mañeru & Leire Laskurain crossed the line in 1:13:57: 338th of 866 mixed teams, faster than 61% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 76% of the field beaten on the stations, against 48% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 0:43 quicker than the median and 115th of 866. A harder second half: 1:02 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Bilbao ran fast: the 376 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:28 quicker here than at their other races.
