About the 8th Annual Calvary Stampede

The course winds around the lakes in the Tradition community, starting and finishing in Tradition Square. It is a route change from previous years, so the lakeside loop is new. Dogs are welcome to race alongside their owners, which gives the start line a different energy than most local road races.

Parking fills up before road closures go into effect, so arriving well before the start is worth it. There is a kids dash in addition to the main distances, run right around Tradition Square, with spectators watching from the grass nearby.

Common Questions About the 8th Annual Calvary Stampede

Will I finish last at the 8th Annual Calvary Stampede?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 44:43, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:33:56, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the 8th Annual Calvary Stampede a good first 5K?

A field of 316 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the 8th Annual Calvary Stampede?

The 5K winner ran 16:56 while the median finisher took 44:43. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
