The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Dirk van Verseveld finished in the top 10% of the field at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:08:37 for 80th of 1,192 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:29 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:02 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 5:22, was faster than 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Utrecht 2025 were 5:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
