The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, Berend Mastenbroek crossed the line in 1:27:31: 284th of 570 men, faster than 50% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 67% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 31% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:29 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:16 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Amsterdam 2024 were 4:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
