The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:33:16 at Rotterdam 2025 put Julien Istace 869th of 1,283 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 46% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 24% on the stations. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 2:32 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:06 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2025 and Paris 2024 were 5:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
