The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jarno Koster finished 738th of 966 men in the Open division at Heerenveen 2026, in 1:35:22.
A station race more than a running one: 40% of the field beaten on the stations, against 13% on the runs. The sled push cost the most time: 0:38 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:32 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Heerenveen 2026 and Amsterdam 2023 were 9:13 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
