How fast is it?

Slower than most US sprint triathlons

The fastest quarter of the 2025 sprint triathlon field finished under 1:30:51, against 1:24:09 in a typical US sprint triathlon, so times here run 8 percent slower.

  • Olympic Triathlon: About average for US olympic triathlons. The fastest quarter of the 2025 olympic triathlon field finished under 2:41:32, against 2:43:48 in a typical US olympic 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 July 23 the day usually runs from 63°F at dawn to 82°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 23% of days. Cold snaps dip to 57°F and hot years reach 89°F.
