The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Mechelen 2026, Matthias Cloet crossed the line in 1:03:43: 71st of 457 men, faster than 85% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 1:02 quicker than the median and 57th of 457. Time in the roxzone, 5:25, was faster than 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 5:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
