The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Conrad Herbst finished in the top 10% of the field at Cape Town 2026, in 1:06:05 for 18th of 178 men in the Pro division.
A station race more than a running one: 95% of the field beaten on the stations, against 72% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:54 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 6:26 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Cape Town 1 2026 were 3:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
