The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jorge Del Barrio finished 994th of 1,192 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:43:57.
Legs and stations told different stories: 30% of the field beaten on the runs, 10% on the stations. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 3:01. A harder second half: 3:58 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Rotterdam gave the field time back: about 1:19 faster than the average race this season, by 1,324 athletes who raced both.
