Schotman outsprints Bult for Dutch marathon title after some go off course
Turpijn solos to women's win
Frank Schotman outsprinted Axel Bult for the Dutch marathon national title. Niels Wubben finished third, ahead of Bart Brentjens and Bas Peters.
Brentjens thought he was the first man across the line and he celebrated jubilantly, thinking he had won the national title. However, Brentjens, Peters, Jeroen Boelen and Luttenberg had been passed during the race by Schotman, Wubben and Bult, who apparently took a different route. The foursome never realized the eventual top three men were in front of them.
"Last Wednesday, we led a large group around the course with the organizers. There were no changes to the course, there must have been arrows removed or something," said Brentjens. "It's a bit frustrating to hear that three had already finished before us."
On the other hand, there was no controversy in the women's race. Laura Turpijn soloed to a win ahead of Mirre Stallen and Nicoletta De Jager.
