The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:08:01 at Mechelen 2026 put Joel Brown 86th of 747 men in the Open division, ahead of 89% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:44 quicker than the median and 109th of 747. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:59 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Dublin 2025 were 2:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
