The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Maastricht 2026, Bart Vandenbussche crossed the line in 1:18:29: 152nd of 546 men, faster than 72% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:40 quicker than the median and 9th of 546. The race faded late: the second half went 2:12 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2026 and Mechelen 2026 were 1:47 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
