The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Mechelen 2026, Nicole Platzbecker crossed the line in 1:18:31: 83rd of 776 women, faster than 89% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:56 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:21 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 7:06, was faster than 89% 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.
