The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Emilio Mejía Padilla finished in the top 10% of the field at Mexico City 2026, in 1:17:52 for 79th of 850 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 2:02 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:51 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 7:11, was faster than 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mexico City 2026 and Monterrey 2025 were 4:56 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
