The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:35 at Cape Town 2026 put Deon Wessels on the age-group podium: 3rd of 14 in the 55–59 age group.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:02 quicker than the median and 219th of 652. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:15 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 11:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
