Common Questions About Running a March 5K in New York

When in March are most 5K races held?

The busiest weekend in New York is March 27 and March 28, with 6 5K races on those two days, and the single busiest day is Saturday, March 27 with 6. Another 1 fall on a weekday, which is worth knowing if you are traveling for one.

When should I sign up for a March 5K?

As early as you can. 4 of these March 5K races already have a price increase on the calendar, and 10 are open for entry right now. Another 1 have published an opening date and have not opened yet.

How much does a March 5K cost to enter?

The typical entry is $30, with paid entries running from $20 up to $30. Entry fees climb as race day gets closer, so the same race is usually cheapest the week it opens.

What is a good 5K time?

Across the 3 of these March 5K races with published results from past editions, the median finisher ran 37:33, and the median winning time was 20:23. So anything under 37:33 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 March 5K field?

The median one finished 377 runners, across the 3 of these March 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 1:02:07.
