How fast is it?

About average for Ohio sprint triathlons

The fastest quarter of the 2026 sprint triathlon field finished under 1:26:00, against 1:25:56 in a typical Ohio sprint 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 11 the day usually runs from 66°F at dawn to 84°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 31% of days. Cold snaps dip to 60°F and hot years reach 91°F.

Based on 75 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
