The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:31:17 at Cape Town 1 2026 put Asanda Macingwana 56th of 181 women in the Open division, ahead of 69% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 85% of the field beaten on the runs, 46% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:12. The race faded late: the second half went 2:11 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 1 2026 and Johannesburg 2025 were 10:28 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
