The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Joep Niezink finished 502nd of 1,352 men in the Open division at Maastricht 2025, in 1:25:08, faster than 63% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 76% of the field beaten on the stations, against 46% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:12 on the median. A harder second half: 1:26 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2025 and Belgium 2025 were 1:22 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
