The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Lawrence Nyamuziwa finished 512th of 652 men in the Open division at Cape Town 2026, in 1:52:43.
The stations carried this race: faster than 41% of the field across all eight, against 10% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:05 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:32 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Cape Town 2025 were 6:48 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
