The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rome 2025, Vincenzo Veropalumbo crossed the line in 1:25:07: 314th of 632 men, faster than 50% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 72% of the field beaten on the runs, 31% on the stations. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 2:09. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:49 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2025 and Rimini 2025 were 1:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
