How to read
Place is the position among timed finishers in the same race, division and gender; a doubles place is the team's. Runs is the organiser's official run total (it can differ from the eight laps added up by a few seconds), stations the eight stations added up, and roxzone the time moving between them. ‡ The organiser timed all eight stations and the total is theirs, but one split is not used in comparisons: it was under our floor for that station (just under the fastest Elite 15 splits ever), which usually means a timing slip at the mats or a short course. Open the splits to see it. The age group is the one entered for that race; for a team it is the team’s age group. A dash means the organiser did not publish that number for the result. How the numbers are made.

Cape Town 2025, against 477 Doubles Men
Shape of the race
Further out means you beat more of the field on that part. A dent is a weak spot.
How you ranked on each station
Longer is better: the share of the field you beat.
Minutes against the typical finisher
Green, left of centre: faster than the typical Doubles Men finisher at this race. Orange, right: slower, and by how much.
The race as one bar: Schalk against the typical Doubles Men finisher
The race in order, left to right. A wider block than the one below is slower than typical.
Sandbag lunges cost 3:18 against the typical Doubles Men finisher at Cape Town 2025. The sandbag lunges guide shows whether that is strength or pacing, and the workouts that fix it.
Fix sandbag lunges. Then beat 1:29:46.
