Water temperature and wetsuits at Lake Montclair Triathlon & Duathlon

Around June 15, Lake Montclair typically runs about 80°F at the surface (77 to 85°F across 2011 to 2020). The water usually runs above 78°F at this date: wetsuits are allowed but make you ineligible for age-group awards.

A model estimate from the USGS lake temperature model (daily surface temperatures for US lakes), not a measurement. Wetsuit cutoffs are USA Triathlon age-group rules. The race's own water temperature reading on race morning decides.

How fast is it?

About average for US duathlons

The fastest quarter of the 2025 duathlon field finished under 1:20:51, against 1:20:51 in a typical US duathlon, so times here are about average.

  • Sprint Triathlon: Faster than most Virginia sprint triathlons. The fastest quarter of the 2025 sprint triathlon field finished under 1:11:14, against 1:24:35 in a typical Virginia sprint triathlon, so times here run 16 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.
