The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:22:39 at Amsterdam 2026 put Damian van Beek 224th of 570 men in the Open division, ahead of 61% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 72% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 46% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:56 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 6:15 worse 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.
