How fast is it?

About average for Virginia sprint triathlons

The fastest quarter of the 2026 sprint triathlon field finished under 1:24:16, against 1:24:35 in a typical Virginia sprint triathlon, so times here are about average.

Compares the fastest quarter of each field, so walkers and first-timers do not skew it. It reflects the course and the field together: a flat course, cool weather, or a competitive crowd all make times faster.

Typical race-day weather

Around August 29 the day usually runs from 66°F at dawn to 86°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 13% of days. Cold snaps dip to 56°F and hot years reach 93°F.

Based on 75 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.

From the organizers

Triathlon is seen as a niche sport for elite athletes competing at a high level. At the Fawn Lake Triathlon, we like to think that paradigm can be expanded. Imagine an event that sees three generations of a family competing on one day. Add to that, the entire Fawn Lake Community shows up! In 2026 we had 130 volunteers on the course, ensuring safety and supporting the athletes.

Finally, you will never find a better course on which to compete. You will get a pristine lake, gentle rolling hill ride on traffic-free roads and a fast, shady run course. If you want the perfect triathlon as a 1st timer or experienced racer, “Tri” Fawn Lake!
