The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gerrie Van Dalen took 2nd of 89 in the 16–24 age group at Cape Town 2026, in 1:03:36.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:44 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:01 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 3:27, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Cape Town 1 2026 were 6:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
