The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jeremy Varlack finished 509th of 570 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:51:39.
A station race more than a running one: 25% of the field beaten on the stations, against 5% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:57 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:06 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Rotterdam gave the field time back: about 1:19 faster than the average race this season, by 1,324 athletes who raced both.
