The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Vera van Polen finished in the top 10% of the field at Amsterdam 2026, in 1:16:55 for 26th of 288 women in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:42 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:14 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2026 and Gent 2025 were 2:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
