How fast is it?

Slower than most California 5Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2026 5K field finished under 33:23, against 30:43 in a typical California 5K, so times here run 9 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.

Around January 24 the day usually runs from 44°F at dawn to 65°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 11% of days. Cold snaps dip to 36°F and hot years reach 76°F.
