The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Mechelen 2026, Romy Peeters crossed the line in 1:28:52: 137th of 300 women, faster than 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 77% of the field beaten on the stations, against 49% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 2:57 quicker than the median and 2nd of 300.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Maastricht 2025 were 5:50 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
