How these numbers are made
Each race's published results are reduced to percentile times for the whole field and for each gender and age group; names are never stored. Those curves are pooled across races of the last two years, weighted by finishers, so a big race counts for more than a small one. Relay, team and kids entries and results with impossible times are left out, and a group needs 100 finishers across 5 races before we show it. Course lengths vary more in triathlon than in running (a pool swim may be 300 yards, an open-water sprint 750 meters), so compare your time with races like yours. Medians include first-timers, so they are slower than club times.
