About average for US duathlons
The fastest quarter of the 2025 duathlon field finished under 1:19:48, against 1:20:51 in a typical US duathlon, 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.

completing the event before the 91-minute & 12-second mark.
