The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sven de Vlam finished 272nd of 401 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:31:57.
Legs and stations told different stories: 46% of the field beaten on the runs, 20% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:45 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:29 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Rotterdam ran fast: the 1,324 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:19 quicker here than at their other races.
