To be honest, kind of slow. Better than average though.

Did you mis the heading??? It says. "Average" guy. Do you understand AVERAGE???
The 60% age graded post shows 22:15 for a 40 year old. Of course the heading is OVER 40, so 20:15 IS respectable. Reality?? 23 is probably respectable for OVER 40 'Average' guys. Do you see it??
Most 40plus people don't run. So is average for a runner?

Now respectable for the LRC hobby jogger crowd (not necessarily age group podium times which would be classified as excellent)
40s-19:XX
50s=20:XX
60=22:XX
70s=2?:XX
80s: Finishing
Agree except the last category: 80s- not dead. ;) -
Well this is BS. I’m 47 years old. 6’2” & about 200 lbs.
There’s no way I’m even making 25 mins. -

Not sure what I did, but there is an error in the above table.
Here is a comparison of the 2010 Factors versus the 2020 Factors, over various race distances, for a 40-yr old male:
