The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Maastricht 2026, Sven van Hensbergen crossed the line in 1:12:38: 173rd of 1,119 men, faster than 85% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 90% of the field across all eight, against 69% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:28 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 7:30 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2026 and Heerenveen 2026 were 1:26 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
