Why?

For the girls marathon the spanish Federation criteria set two places for the national championships that are already taken, and the last one it's going to be decided by the technical committee, and probably is going to be for Alessandra Aguilar (2:29:45 in London2015) if she compites in a marathon this month.

 

It's a bit sad because Azucena Diaz has made today a better time than one of the officially selected athletes, but rules are rules.
