A station race more than a running one: 94% of the field beaten on the stations, against 70% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:17 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:36 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Rotterdam ran slow: the 919 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:13 slower here than at their other races.
