The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Yanik Essama finished 403rd of 455 men in the Open division at Valencia 2025, in 1:50:30.
A station race more than a running one: 36% of the field beaten on the stations, against 3% on the runs. The wall balls cost the most time: 2:46 slower than the median. A harder second half: 7:20 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Valencia ran slow: the 897 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:42 slower here than at their other races.
