The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Stefano Casotto finished 294th of 581 men in the Open division at Rome 2026, in 1:24:41.
The runs carried this race: faster than 63% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 35% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:08 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:04 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Rimini 2025 were 4:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
