The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Giovanni Van Drunen finished 176th of 457 men in the Pro division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:11:02, faster than 62% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 0:37 quicker than the median and 133rd of 457. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:45. The race faded late: the second half went 1:04 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Maastricht 2025 were 7:13 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
