The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:28:50 at Johannesburg 2026 put Jaco van Wyk 191st of 740 men in the Open division, ahead of 74% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 3:47 quicker than the median and 26th of 740. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 0:34 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:02 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 9:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
