The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Marco Buongiorno finished 1,041st of 1,062 men in the Open division at Rome 2026, in 2:15:13.
If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 7:07 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:17 worse against the middle of the field than the first. 12:04 in the roxzone was slower than 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Verona 2025 were 2:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
