The race, in words
In the Open division at Barcelona 2025, Matthew Lynn crossed the line in 1:21:28: 343rd of 795 men, faster than 57% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 67% of the field beaten on the stations, against 43% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:38 on the median.
This was a slow day in Barcelona. Measured against their other races this season, the people who raced here lost about 1:00. That was 1:24 off the time at Malaga 2025.
