The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Barcelona 2025, Rob Mcgovern crossed the line in 1:14:18: 259th of 1,106 men, faster than 77% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 91% of the field beaten on the stations, against 53% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 1:46 quicker than the median and 10th of 1,106. A harder second half: 1:48 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Barcelona ran slow: the 1,204 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:00 slower here than at their other races.
