The fun ranking · La Marmotte Granfondo Alpes 2025

The first-name championship

Forget categories. Which first name brought the most riders round the 177 km and over the line — and which one got there quickest? It is the one classification of 2025 you could improve by deed poll. With 50 nationalities in the results, it is as much a map of Europe as a leaderboard.

Every first name in the field has a page, not just the 150 below. Accent variants are merged, so “frederic” finds the Frédérics too.

Top 150 first names among the 4,302 classified finishers of La Marmotte Granfondo Alpes 2025, as spelled at registration — accent variants (Frédéric, Frederic…) are grouped under the most common spelling. Times are net: the neutralisation credits are already subtracted, exactly as the classification scored them.

Names on the same number of finishers share a place, so a run of 62nds is a tie and not a rendering fault. Only classified finishers count towards a name: riders who started and did not finish score nothing for theirs. This is a bit of fun rather than a classification the timekeeper would recognise — nobody was ranked by their parents on the day.
