Common Questions About Running an October 10K in Oregon

When in October are most 10K races held?

The busiest weekend in Oregon is October 3 and October 4, with 3 10K races on those two days, and the single busiest day is Sunday, October 4 with 2. Another 1 fall on a weekday, which is worth knowing if you are traveling for one.

When should I sign up for an October 10K?

As early as you can. 4 of these October 10K races already have a price increase on the calendar, and 10 are open for entry right now.

How much does an October 10K cost to enter?

The typical entry is $35, with paid entries running from $7 up to $50, and 1 that are free to enter. Entry fees climb as race day gets closer, so the same race is usually cheapest the week it opens.

What is a good 10K time?

Across the 5 of these October 10K races with published results from past editions, the median finisher ran 58:36, and the median winning time was 36:08. So anything under 58:36 puts you in the faster half of a typical field. That is the middle of these RunSignup fields, walkers and charity entrants included, not a national average.

How big is a typical October 10K field?

The median one finished 96 runners, across the 5 of these October 10K races with published results from past editions. Most are far smaller than the big-city events people picture, which means less crowding at the start and a friendlier field, with a last recorded finisher at 1:42:40.
