Race calendar · January 2027 · Massachusetts
Every 5K in Massachusetts in January 2027, all 7 of them, sorted by date. Dates, entry fees, finish-time stats from past results, and start-line maps.
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 Oct 18, 2026.
By the numbers
The January 5K races that stand out on the numbers: the biggest field, and the longest unbroken run of editions.
Across the 3 of these January 5K races with published results from past editions, the median finisher ran 31:12, and the median winning time was 18:41. So anything under 31:12 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 112 runners, across the 3 of these January 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 1:00:16.
