The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mikel Guével finished 1,065th of 1,414 men in the Open division at Geneva 2026, in 1:36:59.
A station race more than a running one: 47% of the field beaten on the stations, against 11% on the runs. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:32 slower than the median. A harder second half: 5:00 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Geneva ran slow: the 824 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:05 slower here than at their other races. That was 8:05 off the time at Bologna 2026.
