The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:27:45 at Rotterdam 2025 put Michael Van Der Ziel 323rd of 600 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 75% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:55 on the median. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 1:13.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2025 and Rotterdam 2024 were 6:34 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
