The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:44:02 at Cape Town 2026 put Belinda Williams 228th of 427 women in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 67% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 29% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 3:11 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:00 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2026 and Johannesburg 2026 were 7:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
