Faster than most Georgia sprint triathlons
The fastest quarter of the 2026 sprint triathlon field finished under 1:21:16, against 1:28:45 in a typical Georgia sprint triathlon, so times here run 8 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.
Around August 21 the day usually runs from 67°F at dawn to 86°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 28% of days. Cold snaps dip to 62°F and hot years reach 92°F.
