About the Four Corners Wine Run 5k

The course runs on roads north and west of Four Corners Winery, then brings you back to where you started. It sounds like open road running through the winery's surroundings, which the organizers describe as having a rustic character. The route suits most paces, and age group awards are available for competitive runners who start with the first wave.

Pickup for your bib happens race morning, starting well before the gun. The finish line is back at the winery, and there is a wine pour waiting there.

Common Questions About the Four Corners Wine Run 5k

Will I finish last at the Four Corners Wine Run 5k?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 42:59, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:14:13, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Four Corners Wine Run 5k a good first 5K?

A field of 340 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. 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 Four Corners Wine Run 5k?

The 5K winner ran 18:01 while the median finisher took 42:59. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
