The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jeffrey Middelburg finished 128th of 348 men in the Pro division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:16:48, faster than 63% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:37 quicker than the median and 104th of 348. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:53 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:40 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Gent 2025 were 1:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
