How fast is it?

Slower than most US half marathons

The fastest quarter of the 2025 half marathon field finished under 2:02:35, against 1:54:37 in a typical US half marathon, so times here run 7 percent slower.

  • 5K: About average for US 5Ks. The fastest quarter of the 2025 5K field finished under 28:39, against 28:55 in a typical US 5K, so times here are about average.
  • 10K: About average for US 10Ks. The fastest quarter of the 2025 10K field finished under 54:40, against 54:18 in a typical US 10K, 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.
