The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:28:17 at Amsterdam 2023 put Terry Takken & Patrick Van Bentem 189th of 283 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 52% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:17 of the median. A harder second half: 1:51 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Amsterdam ran slow: the 193 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:38 slower here than at their other races.
