The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:38:29 at Amsterdam 2023 put Philipp Nießen 796th of 1,079 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 44% of the field beaten on the stations, against 20% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:26 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:07 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 2:37 faster at Amsterdam 2023 than at Rotterdam 2023, a quicker course than most.
