The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:16 at Cape Town 2025 put Willie Smit 239th of 781 men in the Open division, ahead of 69% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:27 on the median. A harder second half: 1:39 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cape Town 2025 and Johannesburg I 2025 were 10:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
