Common Questions About the Choose Life End Suicide

Will I finish last at the Choose Life End Suicide?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3 Miles field finished slower than 9:09:51, and the last recorded finisher came in around 9:23:37, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Choose Life End Suicide a good first 3 Miles?

It is a small race (15 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 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Choose Life End Suicide?

The 3 Miles winner ran 8:56:06 while the median finisher took 9:09:51. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
