How fast is it?

About average for Pennsylvania 8Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2023 8K field finished under 39:38, against 40:35 in a typical Pennsylvania 8K, 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.
