About the DMTL Presents: A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair

This race runs on the campus of Kentucky State University and is organized by a nonprofit built around health equity for the KSU community and Frankfort at large. The distance is short and the pace is open, so the field tends to include students, alumni, and neighbors running or walking together with a shared purpose rather than a competitive one.

A health fair follows the race on campus, with free screenings, food, and music. It is worth staying for; the fair is the heart of the morning, and local hospitals and community organizations set up alongside the finish area to connect people with resources they might not otherwise have easy access to.

Common Questions About the DMTL Presents: A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair

Will I finish last at the DMTL Presents: A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3K field finished slower than 27:26, and the last recorded finisher came in around 43:55, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the DMTL Presents: A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair a good first 3K?

It is a small race (75 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 3K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the DMTL Presents: A Healthy KSU 3K & Health Fair?

The 3K winner ran 14:00 while the median finisher took 27:26. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
