The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Pierre Sahraoui at Mechelen 2026: 1:03:10, 32nd of 747 men in the Open division.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:05 quicker than the median and 32nd of 747. Stronger after halfway: 1:44 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:17, was faster than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Paris 2025 were 6:33 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
