The race, in words
In the Open division at Maastricht 2025, Mike Sas crossed the line in 1:17:53: 253rd of 1,352 men, faster than 81% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 95% of the field beaten on the stations, against 55% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:08 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:07 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Maastricht ran slow: the 1,310 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:40 slower here than at their other races.
