The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Emmet Brady finished 886th of 1,363 men in the Open division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:27:37.
The sled pull was the standout, 0:35 quicker than the median and 328th of 1,363. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:53 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:54 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 3:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
