The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Johannesburg 2026, Liesl Arnott crossed the line in 1:40:03: 154th of 633 women, faster than 76% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:51 quicker than the median and 68th of 633. Paced to finish: the second half went 5:31 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 7:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
