The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Thando Bakumeni finished 595th of 740 men in the Open division at Johannesburg 2026, in 2:01:35.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 3:22 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 5:47 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 9:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
