The race, in words
Simon Caris finished 402nd of 584 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2025, in 1:33:29.
A station race more than a running one: 47% of the field beaten on the stations, against 25% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 0:54 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:34 better against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Rotterdam gained about 0:39.
