The race, in three figures
The race, in words
ray kuijk finished 171st of 556 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:19:26, faster than 69% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 96% of the field beaten on the stations, against 34% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 3:48 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:54 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 2:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
