The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Florine Thiebault finished 421st of 776 women in the Open division at Mechelen 2026, in 1:36:10.
The race faded late: the second half went 1:50 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Mechelen 2026 and Gent 2025 were 2:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
