The race, in words
Victor Degraeve finished in the top 10% of the field at Mechelen 2026, in 1:07:26 for 107th of 1,363 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:30 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:11 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:58, ahead of 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 4:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
