The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:41:52 at Rotterdam 2023 put Guy Walters 456th of 575 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 62% of the field beaten on the stations, against 7% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:48 quicker than the median and 146th of 575. A harder second half: 1:49 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Rotterdam ran slow: the 421 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:12 slower here than at their other races.
