The race, in words
Bryan Grobler & Graham Timm finished 418th of 439 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Johannesburg 2025, in 1:56:31.
A station race more than a running one: 61% of the field beaten on the stations, against 2% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 0:58 on the median. A harder second half: 1:08 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Johannesburg ran slow: the 201 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 8:12 slower here than at their other races.
