About the Frosty 5K/10K/Half
The Frosty runs in the heart of winter, when the air is cold enough that you actually want to pick up the pace. Several distance options are on offer, including a half marathon that covers the course in a couple of loops. Chip timing handles both start and finish, and water stations are spread out along the route.
Packet pickup happens race morning, opening well before the first wave goes off. There is no separate pre-race pickup day listed, so plan to arrive with time to spare before your distance starts.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2026 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 Frosty 5K/10K/Half has been held every year since at least 2019. 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 Sep 26, 2026.
