The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Amsterdam 2026, Christophe Michel crossed the line in 1:22:26: 274th of 608 men, faster than 55% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:02 quicker than the median and 172nd of 608. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 0:42 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:00 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 3:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
