About the Fruitport Old Fashioned Days 5K and Memorial Mile 2027

The race is part of Fruitport's Old Fashioned Days celebration, which gives the morning a town-event feel rather than a standalone road race. The course starts at a street corner and finishes on a school track, so the last stretch is on a surface different from the road you spent most of the race on. Chip timing handles results.

Packet pickup happens race morning at a spot near the track, opening well before the start. Parking is at Fruitport Middle School, which also serves as the finish-line hub.

Common Questions About the Fruitport Old Fashioned Days 5K and Memorial Mile 2027

Will I finish last at the Fruitport Old Fashioned Days 5K and Memorial Mile 2027?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 31:08, and the last recorded finisher came in around 53:11, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Fruitport Old Fashioned Days 5K and Memorial Mile 2027 a good first 5K?

It is a small race (95 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 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Fruitport Old Fashioned Days 5K and Memorial Mile 2027?

The 5K winner ran 17:55 while the median finisher took 31:08. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
