The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cape Town 2026, Ongeziwe Tsoka crossed the line in 1:33:06: 147th of 427 women, faster than 66% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:12 quicker than the median and 69th of 427. The race faded late: the second half went 6:54 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Cape Town 1 2026 were 4:26 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
