The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Lebogang Senye finished 399th of 740 men in the Open division at Johannesburg 2026, in 1:43:21.
A station race more than a running one: 65% of the field beaten on the stations, against 27% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:55 on the median. A harder second half: 7:25 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Johannesburg ran slow: the 210 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:51 slower here than at their other races.
