The race, in words
Kelly Slater & Holly Terblanche finished 310th of 399 women's teams in the Doubles Open division at Cape Town 2026, in 1:52:06.
A station race more than a running one: 45% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:45 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:44 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.
