The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Amsterdam 2023, Paul Aalbers crossed the line in 1:24:45: 393rd of 1,079 men, faster than 64% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:30 on the median. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 1:01. The race faded late: the second half went 1:43 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2023 and Amsterdam 2022 were 2:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
