About average for US 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2025 5K field finished under 28:55, against 28:55 in a typical US 5K, 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.
Around October 3 the day usually runs from 61°F at dawn to 78°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 12% of days. Cold snaps dip to 52°F and hot years reach 83°F.
Based on 75 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
