How fast is it?

Slower than most US 5Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2026 5K field finished under 38:17, against 28:54 in a typical US 5K, so times here run 33 percent slower.

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.

Typical race-day weather

Around May 8 the day usually runs from 51°F at dawn to 70°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 36% of days. Cold snaps dip to 43°F and hot years reach 80°F.
