The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:36:15 at Amsterdam 2026 put Sophie Van Mer 37th of 44 women in the Pro division.
A station race more than a running one: 43% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. Stronger after halfway: 3:50 better against the middle of the field than before it. 9:27 in the roxzone was slower than 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Utrecht 2025 were 4:50 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
