Common Questions About the Alternatives Inc. Dignity Dash

Will I finish last at the Alternatives Inc. Dignity Dash?

Almost certainly not. Half the 10K field finished slower than 1:01:19, and the last recorded finisher came in around 2:03:22, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Alternatives Inc. Dignity Dash a good first 10K?

It is a small race (45 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 10K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Alternatives Inc. Dignity Dash?

The 10K winner ran 36:45 while the median finisher took 1:01:19. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
