How fast is it?

Slower than most Georgia 5Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2026 5K field finished under 31:19, against 29:30 in a typical Georgia 5K, so times here run 6 percent slower.

  • 10K: Faster than most Georgia 10Ks. The fastest quarter of the 2026 10K field finished under 52:29, against 54:39 in a typical Georgia 10K, so times here run 4 percent faster.

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 March 6 the day usually runs from 49°F at dawn to 72°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 25% of days. Cold snaps dip to 39°F and hot years reach 81°F.

Based on 76 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
