The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rotterdam 2024, Bram Aardenburg crossed the line in 1:28:37: 567th of 1,380 men, faster than 59% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 71% of the field beaten on the runs, 45% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 2:03 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:48 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2024 and Amsterdam 2023 were 2:30 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
