The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, Tom Van der woude crossed the line in 1:24:54: 555th of 1,192 men, faster than 53% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:02 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 0:46 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:01 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Gent 2025 were 3:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
