The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:36:45 at Mechelen 2026 put Joachim Kaufmann 1,114th of 1,363 men in the Open division.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:28. Stronger after halfway: 1:48 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Frankfurt 2025 were 5:10 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
