The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:46:53 at Johannesburg 2025 put Rich Cave 342nd of 652 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:21 quicker than the median and 119th of 652. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:35 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2025 and Cape Town 2025 were 5:12 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
