About the Friends of the Parks Half Marathon, 10k, & 5k
The course runs through a lake park complex, using bike trails as its backbone. Shorter distances stay entirely on those trails, while longer distances branch out onto city streets. The terrain is mixed, so expect some variety underfoot rather than a single surface from start to finish. The lake park setting gives the route a natural feel even when the streets pull you away from it.
Packet pickup happens the evening before at a local church. If that does not work, you can send someone in your place or pick up on race morning before the start window closes. Race-morning pickup is available, so arriving without your packet is not a crisis.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Friends of the Parks Half Marathon, 10k, & 5k has been held every year since at least 2022. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
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 Jul 27, 2026.
