The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tristan Batt finished 510th of 652 men in the Open division at Johannesburg 2025, in 2:04:32.
Legs and stations told different stories: 46% of the field beaten on the runs, 9% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 5:06 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 4:08 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.
