About the Armstrong Valley Wine Run 5k
The course runs through the vineyard grounds at Armstrong Valley Winery, so there is scenery along the way that you would not get on a road race. The event is timed and scored, with age group awards available, but the winery setting is clearly the draw. There is a wine pour waiting at the finish.
Packet pickup is race morning only, opening an hour before the start. No need to make a separate trip out the night before.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2026 results, this is a decent-sized field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Armstrong Valley Wine Run 5k has been held every year since at least 2023. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
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 Jul 27, 2026.
