The race, in words
Alan Strachan won the 50–54 age group at Bilbao 2024 in 1:13:12, first of 20.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:35 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:08 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:59, ahead of 88% of the field.
Bilbao ran fast: the 283 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:06 quicker here than at their other races. 0:35 faster than at Frankfurt 2023, the previous Open race.
