The race, in words
Ryno Strydom & Garreth Prout finished 225th of 439 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Johannesburg 2025, in 1:27:43.
A station race more than a running one: 75% of the field beaten on the stations, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:46 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:06 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Johannesburg ran slow: the 201 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 8:12 slower here than at their other races.
