The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rotterdam 2025, Iris Van De Poel crossed the line in 1:23:38: 85th of 411 women, faster than 79% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 87% of the field beaten on the stations, against 64% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:34 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:26 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Rotterdam gave the field time back: about 0:50 faster than the average race this season, by 605 athletes who raced both.
