About the 4th Annual Chesterfield FALL Terrain 5K

The course runs through Fenton Lane Park, a neighborhood-scale setting that keeps things grounded and accessible. The terrain lives up to the name, so expect something more varied underfoot than a standard road race. Each year the event benefits a different local charity, which gives the morning a purpose beyond the finish line.

Packet pickup runs the afternoon before at the park, with another window on race morning before the start. Parking inside the park closes before the gun goes off, so arriving early matters. The neighborhood across from the park has overflow spots if you prefer an easy exit after you finish. Post-race festivities follow shortly after the last runners come in.

Common Questions About the 4th Annual Chesterfield FALL Terrain 5K

Will I finish last at the 4th Annual Chesterfield FALL Terrain 5K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 31:13, and the last recorded finisher came in around 58:13, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the 4th Annual Chesterfield FALL Terrain 5K a good first 5K?

It is a small race (137 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. 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 4th Annual Chesterfield FALL Terrain 5K?

The 5K winner ran 16:29 while the median finisher took 31:13. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
