The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:47:07 at Mechelen 2026 put Aurore Bernier 239th of 300 women in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 35% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 2:10 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:00 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Mechelen gained about 2:17.
