The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Heerenveen 2026, Mark Pedersen crossed the line in 1:13:31: 105th of 490 men, faster than 79% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 87% of the field across all eight, against 64% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 2:28 quicker than the median and 11th of 490. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:11 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Heerenveen 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 2:33 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
