The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chris Van Dael finished 131st of 575 men in the Open division at Rotterdam 2023, in 1:18:42, faster than 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 86% of the field beaten on the runs, 64% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:56 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:37 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rotterdam 2023 and Maastricht European Championships 2023 were 2:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
