The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:46:51 at Rotterdam 2026 put Paula van der Kooij 323rd of 462 women in the Open division.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:09 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:25 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Maastricht 2025 were 4:22 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
