The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Johannesburg 2026, Nomzamo Gcabashe crossed the line in 1:53:13: 299th of 633 women, faster than 53% of the field.
The sled pull was where this race was made, 1:29 ahead of the median. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:10 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:21 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 7:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
