The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:16:09 at Mechelen 2026 put Maarten Vlamings 188th of 561 men in the Open division, ahead of 67% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 81% of the field beaten on the stations, against 46% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:37 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 4:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
