The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Johannesburg 2025, Damien Botes crossed the line in 1:18:17: 24th of 112 men, faster than 79% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 85% of the field beaten on the stations, against 63% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 3:06 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:04 better against the middle of the field than the first.
That was 12:41 off the time at Rome 2025.
