The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:49:47 at Cape Town 1 2026 put Christiaan Brits 369th of 536 men in the Open division.
The stations carried this race: faster than 49% of the field across all eight, against 26% on the runs. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:53. The race faded late: the second half went 3:26 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.
