The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:01:37 at Amsterdam 2026 put Thomas Pals 1,576th of 1,620 men in the Open division.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:05. The race faded late: the second half went 5:08 worse against the middle of the field than the first. 13:15 in the roxzone was slower than 98% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Maastricht 2024 were 3:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
