The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Patrick De Caluwé finished 349th of 1,428 men in the Open division at Gent 2025, in 1:16:06, faster than 76% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 82% of the field beaten on the runs, 58% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:51 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:14 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Gent 2025 and Maastricht 2025 were 5:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
