Past race snapshot
What the field usually feels like
A plain-English read from past public results. It is helpful context, not a prediction.
Crowd
Steady crowd
1,002 5K finishers in 2016. Large enough to feel social, without necessarily feeling packed.
Typical finish
31:21
Think middle-of-the-pack, using chip time when available.
Competitive feel
Lively front
The faster end moves well, but the race still has room for everyday runners. Front-group read: 20:53.
People mix
Mixed field
Gender mix needs more complete finish rows before we summarize it.
