The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:43:48 at Maastricht 2026 put Niels Verheul 946th of 1,119 men in the Open division.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:53. A harder second half: 4:10 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2026 and Utrecht 2025 were 3:50 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
