The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sarah Alders-Wiebers won the 35–39 age group at Mechelen 2026 in 1:04:43, first of 128.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:57 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:27 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:32, was faster than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 1:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
