306 5K races in June 2027
What the field actually runs
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Sep 22, 2026.
When in June
5K races do not spread evenly across June. The busiest weekend is June 5 and June 6, with 82 of them. Another 20 fall on a weekday.
By the numbers
The June 5K races that stand out on the numbers: the biggest field, and the longest unbroken run of editions.
It is a lean month for the 5K. June carries 306, against 3,345 in October and 163 in August, the quietest. A June race is worth planning around rather than picking late, because the one that fits your training block may be the only one within reach.
The busiest weekend is June 5 and June 6, with 82 5K races on those two days, and the single busiest day is Saturday, June 19 with 64. Another 20 fall on a weekday, which is worth knowing if you are traveling for one.
As early as you can. 153 of these June 5K races already have a price increase on the calendar, and 212 are open for entry right now. Another 91 have published an opening date and have not opened yet.
The typical entry is $30, with paid entries running from $5 up to $60, and 2 that are free to enter. Entry fees climb as race day gets closer, so the same race is usually cheapest the week it opens.
Across the 182 of these June 5K races with published results from past editions, the median finisher ran 36:58, and the median winning time was 19:02. So anything under 36:58 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.
The median one finished 142 runners, across the 182 of these June 5K 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 1:06:33.
Texas has 35, Florida has 21, Illinois has 21, California has 18, Michigan has 18. If you are willing to travel, those are the states where a June weekend gives you the most to choose from.
Yes, 11 races around the United States get you off the pavement: 5 are trail races, and 6 mix road and trail. Surfaces are not always published, so it is worth checking a specific race before you register.
May and July sit either side of June, which is where most people look next when a date does not fit.
