The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Melissa De Groot & Menno Tjoelker finished 870th of 1,206 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at Amsterdam 2026, in 1:26:15.
A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 21% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 0:44 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:23 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Amsterdam gained about 2:06.
