The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Johannesburg 2025, Wynand Mouton crossed the line in 1:41:33: 274th of 652 men, faster than 58% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 65% of the field beaten on the runs, 39% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 2:41 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:51 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2025 and Johannesburg I 2025 were 4:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
