The race, in words
Philippe Foulquier finished 340th of 596 men in the Open division at Bilbao 2025, in 1:21:51.
Legs and stations told different stories: 65% of the field beaten on the runs, 29% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:21 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Bilbao gave the field time back: about 0:51 faster than the average race this season, by 545 athletes who raced both.
