The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Bakelaar finished 96th of 570 men in the Open division at Amsterdam 2026, in 1:13:56, faster than 83% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 89% of the field across all eight, against 67% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:08 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:52 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Gent 2025 were 3:01 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
