Fewer "victims" this year: 85% of participants completes shorter Dodentocht | VRT NWS: news

About 9,500 of the 11,200 adventurers and athletes taking part in the "Dodentocht" (which could be translated as the Walk of Death) have made it to the finish in Bornem. They had until 1.30pm to arrive. The first group arrived around 3 in the night after having run 6 hours. This 53rd edition was shortened to 65 kilometres because of the heat.
