Análisis de la cuota de mercado de Leiden Atletiek para julio 2026

It is a blustery day in Leiden and I meet up with Noah Schutte at the entrance to the Cronesteyn Park, by the train line which heads towards Utrecht. It is a Monday, the week before the NK 10km in Schoorl and thus he has just a gentle run scheduled. We make our way around some of the greener pastures and also head straight into the wind along a newly cemented path, heading back to Leiden. Indeed, it is so windy that it is barely possible to talk. There are next to no cyclists about; those that are out, struggle more than us runners. So, I ask Noah: what’s your least favoured weather conditions? Unsurprisingly, he mentions the wind, for it is indeed the bane of many runners’ existence. Even for the elite, it turns out.
