The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sander Nieuwpoort finished 724th of 1,428 men in the Open division at Gent 2025, in 1:24:15.
A station race more than a running one: 58% of the field beaten on the stations, against 36% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 1:10 quicker than the median and 385th of 1,428. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:23 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Gent 2025 and Utrecht 2025 were 4:30 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
