The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Evelyn Mcwilliams won the 40–44 age group at Barcelona 2025 in 1:16:44, first of 36.
A station race more than a running one: 99% of the field beaten on the stations, against 67% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:49 quicker than the median and 5th of 264. A harder second half: 8:28 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Barcelona cost the whole field time: about 0:52 more than the average race this season, going by 492 athletes who raced both. 5:50 slower than at Dublin 2024, the previous Open race.
