The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rudy Carlier finished 176th of 747 men in the Open division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:12:57, faster than 76% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:19 quicker than the median and 179th of 747. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:41 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Bordeaux 2025 were 5:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
