The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cape Town 1 2026, Tyler Jooste crossed the line in 1:27:03: 80th of 181 men, faster than 56% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 68% of the field across all eight, against 47% on the runs. The sled pull was where this race was made, 1:06 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:15 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 1 2026 and Cape Town 2025 were 3:40 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
