The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Johannesburg 2026, Jani Esterhuizen crossed the line in 1:43:35: 188th of 633 women, faster than 70% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:14 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 8:05 better against the middle of the field than before it. 14:12 in the roxzone was slower than 87% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 7:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
