About the Family Fun Halloween 5k

This is a Halloween costume run put on by a high school cheer program and video club, with the local police involved as part of a safe-driving awareness effort. The course is a 5k, open to all paces and ages, and costumes are part of the point. It reads more like a school community event that happens to have a race bib than a timed competition.

There are raffles at the finish and candy on hand while it lasts. The event is organized by student groups, so the energy is closer to a school fundraiser afternoon than a race-morning production.

How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.

Common Questions About the Family Fun Halloween 5k

Will I finish last at the Family Fun Halloween 5k?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 29:43, and the last recorded finisher came in around 51:14, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Family Fun Halloween 5k a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (35 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 Family Fun Halloween 5k?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 22:25 while the median finisher took 29:43. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
