The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael De Bruin finished 1,220th of 1,620 men in the Open division at Amsterdam 2026, in 1:33:38.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:16. A harder second half: 1:31 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Maastricht 2025 were 7:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
