The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:01:54 at Cape Town 2026 put Vahin Naka 566th of 652 men in the Open division.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 6:49. The race faded late: the second half went 7:41 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
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.
