The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Peter Verheyen finished 712th of 1,428 men in the Open division at Gent 2025, in 1:24:00, faster than 50% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 70% of the field beaten on the stations, against 28% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 0:49 quicker than the median and 403rd of 1,428. The race faded late: the second half went 1:10 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Gent gave the field time back: about 0:26 faster than the average race this season, by 938 athletes who raced both.
