Common Questions About the Brevard Zoo's Babirusa Boogie 3K

Will I finish last at the Brevard Zoo's Babirusa Boogie 3K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3K field finished slower than 24:13, and the last recorded finisher came in around 50:10, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Brevard Zoo's Babirusa Boogie 3K a good first 3K?

With 1,190 finishers there are runners at every pace, so you are never out on your own. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Brevard Zoo's Babirusa Boogie 3K?

The 3K winner ran 9:20 while the median finisher took 24:13. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
