How fast is it?

Slower than most Illinois 5Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2026 5K field finished under 38:21, against 28:26 in a typical Illinois 5K, so times here run 35 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.
