The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sam Kol finished in the top 10% of the field at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:09:34 for 52nd of 556 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:59 quicker than the median and 27th of 556. Stronger after halfway: 3:44 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 5:07, ahead of 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 2:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
