The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Rose took 2nd of 146 in the 30–34 age group at Johannesburg 2025, in 1:10:46.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 4:23 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:42 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:42, ahead of 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2025 and Cape Town 2025 were 5:12 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
