The race, in words

Mark Du Preez finished 154th of 536 men in the Open division at Cape Town 1 2026, in 1:28:21, faster than 71% of the field.

A station race more than a running one: 95% of the field beaten on the stations, against 48% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 2:29 quicker than the median and 68th of 536. The race faded late: the second half went 3:00 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.
