The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michele Varlotta finished 645th of 1,523 men in the Open division at Verona 2025, in 1:21:17, faster than 58% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 85% of the field beaten on the runs, 28% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 1:58 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:50 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Verona 2025 and Rimini 2025 were 3:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
