The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Claire-Sophie Cohen finished 323rd of 558 women in the Open division at Rome 2026, in 1:39:45.
Legs and stations told different stories: 62% of the field beaten on the runs, 26% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 4:28. The race faded late: the second half went 2:53 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Barcelona 2026 were 5:16 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
