The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Erik Ayora finished 815th of 1,018 men in the Open division at Valencia 2025, in 1:35:32.
A station race more than a running one: 38% of the field beaten on the stations, against 9% on the runs. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:10 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:25 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.
