The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Amsterdam 2026, Rick Van Der Zanden crossed the line in 1:15:55: 407th of 1,620 men, faster than 75% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 90% of the field beaten on the runs, 50% on the stations.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Maastricht 2025 were 7:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
