The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Marc Lakerveld finished 177th of 747 men in the Open division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:12:57, faster than 76% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 0:53 quicker than the median and 201st of 747. Stronger after halfway: 1:17 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Utrecht 2025 were 6:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
