The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Heerenveen 2026, Bernadette Wijermars crossed the line in 1:19:26: 57th of 427 women, faster than 87% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 98% of the field beaten on the runs, 59% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:34 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Heerenveen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 2:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
