The race, in words
Carsten Aalbers finished 695th of 1,192 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:29:50.
A station race more than a running one: 55% of the field beaten on the stations, against 28% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 0:54 on the median. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:02 slower than the median.
Rotterdam ran fast: the 1,324 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:19 quicker here than at their other races.
