How fast is it?

Faster than most Oregon 5Ks

The fastest quarter of the 2025 5K field finished under 25:52, against 29:29 in a typical Oregon 5K, so times here run 12 percent faster.

  • 15K: Faster than most US 15Ks. The fastest quarter of the 2025 15K field finished under 1:12:07, against 1:20:57 in a typical US 15K, so times here run 11 percent faster.

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 November 14 the day usually runs from 37°F at dawn to 55°F in the afternoon, with measurable rain on about 27% of days. Cold snaps dip to 30°F and hot years reach 63°F.
