The race, in words
Nealy Lombaard & Ashton Jacobs finished 376th of 798 women's teams in the Doubles Open division at Cape Town 2026, in 1:31:59, faster than 53% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 69% of the field beaten on the stations, against 46% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:36 quicker than the median and 186th of 798. A harder second half: 1:39 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Cape Town ran slow: the 469 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 5:59 slower here than at their other races.
