The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:24:52 at Maastricht 2026 put Nico De Crem 544th of 1,119 men in the Open division, ahead of 51% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:49 quicker than the median and 252nd of 1,119. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:32 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:28 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Maastricht 2026 and Mechelen 2026 were 1:47 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
