The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Shanna Achterberg took 3rd of 31 in the 30–34 age group at Mechelen 2026, in 1:13:38.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 2:01 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:22 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 7:01, ahead of 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 1:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
