The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Johannesburg 2025, Sammy Mashita crossed the line in 1:43:40: 304th of 652 men, faster than 53% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:05 quicker than the median and 74th of 652. The sled push cost the most time: 0:48 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:30 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2025 and Cape Town 2025 were 5:12 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
