The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mathias Deville finished 247th of 1,363 men in the Open division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:12:03, faster than 82% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 90% of the field beaten on the stations, against 67% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:10 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:42 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Maastricht 2025 were 8:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
