The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Ryan Potgieter at Cape Town 2025: 1:11:07, 41st of 781 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:21 quicker than the median and 121st of 781. A harder second half: 1:04 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2025 and Cape Town 2024 were 2:13 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
