The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Verona 2025, Luca Francini crossed the line in 1:18:17: 500th of 1,523 men, faster than 67% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 79% of the field beaten on the runs, 53% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:30 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:36 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Verona 2025 and Rimini 2025 were 3:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
