Quick answers

What is a good sprint triathlon time in Alaska?
Half of Alaska finishers complete the sprint triathlon in 1:44:41 or faster, a quarter in 1:30:21 or faster, and the fastest tenth in 1:19:14. Under 1:30:21 puts you in the top quarter of the field.

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.
