How fast is it?

Faster than most Florida sprint triathlons

The fastest quarter of the 2026 sprint triathlon field finished under 1:03:41, against 1:10:57 in a typical Florida sprint triathlon, so times here run 10 percent faster.

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.
