How fast is it?
Slower than most New Jersey 5Ks
The fastest quarter of the 2024 5K field finished under 33:52, against 27:09 in a typical New Jersey 5K, so times here run 25 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.
