The race, in words
Brian Fung finished 245th of 504 men in the Open division at Valencia 2026, in 1:21:51, faster than 51% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 68% of the field beaten on the stations, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:22 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:40 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Valencia ran fast: the 667 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:08 quicker here than at their other races. 1:08 faster than at New York 2026, the previous Open race.
