The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mariska Nortje finished in the top 10% of the field at Johannesburg 2025, in 1:23:37 for 22nd of 550 women in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 4:18 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Johannesburg 2025 and Cape Town 2025 were 5:13 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
