The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:23:47 at Rotterdam 2024 put Melvin Vissers & Arjan Schuld 539th of 722 men's teams in the Doubles Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 63% of the field beaten on the stations, against 18% on the runs. No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:19 of the median. A harder second half: 1:39 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a slow day in Rotterdam. Measured against their other races this season, the people who raced here lost about 0:51.
