How fast is it?
Slower than most Washington 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2025 5K field finished under 31:55, against 30:04 in a typical Washington 5K, so times here run 6 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.
