About average for Oregon 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2024 5K field finished under 29:31, against 29:29 in a typical Oregon 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.
Around May 2 the day usually runs from 43°F at dawn to 60°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 32% of days. Cold snaps dip to 38°F and hot years reach 73°F.
