The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Berno Van Aswegen finished in the top 10% of the field at Johannesburg 2026, in 1:09:36 for 14th of 740 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 4:12 quicker than the median and 9th of 740. Paced to finish: the second half went 5:14 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 5:07, was faster than 98% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 9:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
