The race, in three figures
The race, in words
S.A. Hoekstra finished in the top 10% of the field at Hamburg 2026, in 1:03:26 for 6th of 432 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 4:44 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:26 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 5:04, was faster than 91% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Hamburg 2026 and Oslo 2026 were 1:26 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
