The race, in words
In the Open division at Maastricht 2025, Roel Van Goethem crossed the line in 1:24:44: 250th of 584 men, faster than 57% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 0:41 quicker than the median and 196th of 584. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 0:35. A harder second half: 1:06 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 1:22 slower at Maastricht 2025 than at Belgium 2025, which makes this time better than it looks.
