Berend Lanser, 30, died after suffering cardiac arrest during the Urk marathon. A year later, his widow Suzanne Lanser, 29, from Kampen said that the loss also contained something comforting. She said that looking at the clock made her realize he would normally have been home by then.

After the death of her father, four-year-old Ella asked how he could be here while also being with God.
