How fast is it?
About average for California 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2025 5K field finished under 30:01, against 30:43 in a typical California 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 November 14 the day usually runs from 50°F at dawn to 72°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 15% of days. Cold snaps dip to 44°F and hot years reach 83°F.
