About the Chicks on the Run 5K & Honor Walk

The race starts and finishes at Barleycorn's Brewhouse, a local brewery that also hosts the post-race celebration. The course runs on paved roads through the surrounding streets before picking up a trail that dips into a wooded section, then loops through a waterfront parking area and comes back. It is a breast cancer benefit with a shorter honor walk option that covers a simpler neighborhood loop.

Packet pickup happens at Barleycorn's on race morning as well as the afternoon before. General parking is at Frederick's Landing, with a shuttle running to and from the start. After the race, the brewery serves a pink cream ale brewed specifically for the occasion, and awards are handed out inside.

Common Questions About the Chicks on the Run 5K & Honor Walk

Will I finish last at the Chicks on the Run 5K & Honor Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 53:02, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:08:27, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Chicks on the Run 5K & Honor Walk a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (143 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Chicks on the Run 5K & Honor Walk?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 22:47 while the median finisher took 53:02. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
