Almost certainly not. Half the 1 Miles field finished slower than 20:05, and the last recorded finisher came in around 23:39, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
It is a small race (52 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 1 Miles winner ran 14:06 while the median finisher took 20:05. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
