The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Danie Nieuwenhuizen finished 78th of 181 men in the Open division at Cape Town 1 2026, in 1:26:55, faster than 57% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:25 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:56. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:09 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 1 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 9:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
