The race, in words
1:24:23 at Madrid 2025 put Gonçalo Santos 701st of 1,361 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 61% of the field beaten on the stations, against 40% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:17 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:38 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Madrid ran slow: the 1,531 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:27 slower here than at their other races. Gonçalo Santos's fastest of 2 finishes in the Open division.
