The race, in words
In the Open division at Milan 2024, Pier Paolo Scala crossed the line in 1:20:32: 358th of 1,370 men, faster than 74% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 81% of the field beaten on the stations, against 60% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:25 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 4:18 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Milan ran slow: the 952 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 4:16 slower here than at their other races.
