The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:33 at Valencia 2026 put Nelson Placido 571st of 898 men in the Open division.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 1:51 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:40 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Valencia 2026 and Lisboa 2026 were 3:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
