The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Maastricht 2024, Mark van den Berg crossed the line in 1:25:14: 373rd of 781 men, faster than 52% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 68% of the field across all eight, against 40% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:48 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:10 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2024 and Amsterdam 2023 were 5:01 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
