The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:38:28 at Mechelen 2026 put Delphine Steinier 203rd of 300 women in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 44% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 23% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:47. The race faded late: the second half went 2:51 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 2:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
