The race, in words
In the Open division at Cape Town 2026, Shaun Fredericks crossed the line in 1:28:02: 239th of 652 men, faster than 63% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 79% of the field across all eight, against 46% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:52 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:40.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Johannesburg 2026 were 5:41 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
