The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sander Van Der Linden finished 82nd of 305 men in the Pro division at Gent 2025, in 1:11:40, faster than 73% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 93% of the field beaten on the runs, 52% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 0:39 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:53 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Gent 2025 and Heerenveen 2025 were 1:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
