The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:37:07 at Cape Town 1 2026 put Marianka Fourie 112th of 364 women in the Open division, ahead of 69% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 77% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 56% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:15 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:32 better against the middle of the field than before it.
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.
