The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Bob van de Polder finished 1,009th of 1,192 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2026, in 1:44:42.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 0:30 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 3:01. The race faded late: the second half went 2:45 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2026 and Rotterdam 2025 were 4:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
