The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rotterdam 2024, Erik Saathoff crossed the line in 1:31:04: 682nd of 1,380 men, faster than 51% of the field.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:44. The race faded late: the second half went 1:17 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2024 and Rotterdam 2023 were 3:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
