The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bilbao 2023, Juan Valero De Blas crossed the line in 1:07:19: 32nd of 299 men, faster than 89% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 99% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 62% on the stations. Stronger after halfway: 1:15 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:18, was faster than 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Bilbao 2023 and Madrid 2021 were 2:53 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
