The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Nils Boomsma took 2nd of 12 in the 55–59 age group at Hamburg 2025, in 1:19:16.
Legs and stations told different stories: 77% of the field beaten on the runs, 51% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:11 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:20 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2025 and Belgium 2025 were 2:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
