The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Patrick Duggan finished in the top 10% of the field at Mechelen 2026, in 1:03:31 for 36th of 747 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:01 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:09 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:58, ahead of 91% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 5:38 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
