The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Niek Kok finished 527th of 608 men in the Open division at Amsterdam 2026, in 1:41:39.
A station race more than a running one: 31% of the field beaten on the stations, against 10% on the runs. A harder second half: 2:55 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 10:13 in the roxzone was slower than 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Heerenveen 2025 were 4:07 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
