The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jon Salmeron finished 398th of 596 men in the Open division at Bilbao 2025, in 1:24:53.
A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:03 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:09 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Bilbao gave the field time back: about 0:51 faster than the average race this season, by 545 athletes who raced both.
