The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:23:09 at Mechelen 2026 put Rick Stalenhoef 703rd of 1,363 men in the Open division.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:13. The race faded late: the second half went 1:48 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Stockholm 2025 were 3:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
