The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Maastricht 2026, Sacha Buytaert crossed the line in 1:17:04: 129th of 546 men, faster than 76% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 85% of the field beaten on the stations, against 65% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:36 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2026 and Heerenveen 2026 were 1:26 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
