The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cape Town 1 2026, Mfundho Xivambu crossed the line in 1:35:55: 235th of 536 men, faster than 56% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 71% of the field beaten on the runs, 45% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:06 slower than the median.
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.
