How fast is it?
About average for Michigan 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2026 5K field finished under 28:57, against 28:36 in a typical Michigan 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.
Typical race-day weather
Around June 12 the day usually runs from 56°F at dawn to 77°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 29% of days. Cold snaps dip to 51°F and hot years reach 87°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.
