How fast is it?

Faster than most Florida super sprint triathlons

The fastest quarter of the 2022 super sprint triathlon field finished under 25:25, against 53:46 in a typical Florida super sprint triathlon, so times here run 53 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.
