Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 56:10, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:11:44, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
A field of 221 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 3.1 Miles winner ran 20:53 while the median finisher took 56:10. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
