The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Amsterdam 2022, Robert Nicolai crossed the line in 1:26:33: 254th of 561 men, faster than 55% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:04 quicker than the median and 125th of 561. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:42 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:16 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Amsterdam 2022 and Maastricht 2022 were 4:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
