Common Questions About the Captain Jack's Treasure Run

Will I finish last at the Captain Jack's Treasure Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 34:59, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:02:55, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Captain Jack's Treasure Run a good first 5K?

A field of 305 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 Captain Jack's Treasure Run?

The 5K winner ran 18:13 while the median finisher took 34:59. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
