The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:31:27 at Cape Town 2026 put Shaun Barkhuizen 292nd of 652 men in the Open division, ahead of 55% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 71% of the field beaten on the runs, 43% on the stations. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 0:58.
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.
