The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jaryd Van Straaten finished 699th of 781 men in the Open division at Cape Town 2025, in 2:08:04.
If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 7:25 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:11 better against the middle of the field than the first.
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.
