The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Bilbao 2023, Nuno Saraiva & Pedro Batista crossed the line in 1:06:09: 81st of 221 men's teams, faster than 63% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 75% of the field beaten on the stations, against 55% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 0:35 on the median. A harder second half: 1:43 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Bilbao ran fast: the 113 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:00 quicker here than at their other races.
