The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Bertie Van Zyl finished 388th of 1,217 men in the Open division at Heerenveen 2025, in 1:19:27, faster than 68% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 82% of the field beaten on the stations, against 52% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:32 quicker than the median and 136th of 1,217.
Athletes who raced both Heerenveen 2025 and Rotterdam 2025 were 2:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
