The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Conor Bowes finished 299th of 747 men in the Open division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:18:32, faster than 60% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 0:57 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:06 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Stockholm 2025 were 3:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
