The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:59:49 at Johannesburg 2025 put Jaco Kachelhoffer 474th of 652 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 57% of the field beaten on the runs, 9% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 8:44 behind the median. A harder second half: 6:33 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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.
