The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mário Sousa finished 386th of 594 men in the Open division at Barcelona 2023, in 1:29:45.
A station race more than a running one: 48% of the field beaten on the stations, against 23% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 1:08 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:56 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Barcelona ran slow: the 324 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:51 slower here than at their other races.
