Slower than most Connecticut 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2025 5K field finished under 28:16, against 27:02 in a typical Connecticut 5K, so times here run 5 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 October 31 the day usually runs from 43°F at dawn to 58°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 23% of days. Cold snaps dip to 33°F and hot years reach 74°F.
Based on 75 days within a week of the date over the last 5 years, from historical weather for the start area. Not a forecast.
