The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Daniel Dennison finished 352nd of 536 men in the Open division at Cape Town 1 2026, in 1:48:24.
Legs and stations told different stories: 50% of the field beaten on the runs, 27% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 2:38 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:43 worse 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.
