The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Baptiste Klein finished in the top 10% of the field at Mechelen 2026, in 1:03:42 for 38th of 1,363 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:24 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:57 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:41, was faster than 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 5:38 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
