The race, in words
Johann Grobler finished 529th of 740 men in the Open division at Johannesburg 2026, in 1:54:34.
Nowhere gained more than the sled push: 0:35 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 5:07 behind the median. A harder second half: 6:56 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.
