The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Quinn Mekel finished in the top 10% of the field at Heerenveen 2026, in 1:08:15 for 38th of 490 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:49 quicker than the median and 54th of 490. Stronger after halfway: 1:45 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 6:13, was faster than 85% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Heerenveen 2026 and Mechelen 2026 were 1:45 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
