The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Darren McCauley finished 182nd of 457 men in the Pro division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:11:20, faster than 60% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 75% of the field beaten on the stations, against 46% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:06 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 5:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
