The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Koen Bakker finished 876th of 1,380 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2024, in 1:36:12.
A station race more than a running one: 90% of the field beaten on the stations, against 6% on the runs. The race faded late: the second half went 3:45 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:12, was faster than 99% of the field.
Rotterdam ran slow: the 919 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:13 slower here than at their other races.
