Common Questions About the Carney's Cares Weekend Extravaganza

Will I finish last at the Carney's Cares Weekend Extravaganza?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 29:26, and the last recorded finisher came in around 56:55, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Carney's Cares Weekend Extravaganza a good first 3.1 Miles?

A field of 296 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Carney's Cares Weekend Extravaganza?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 17:00 while the median finisher took 29:26. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
