Common Questions About Running a May Half Marathon in Washington

When should I sign up for a May Half Marathon?

As early as you can. 5 of these May Half Marathon races already have a price increase on the calendar, and 4 are open for entry right now. Another 3 have published an opening date and have not opened yet.

How much does a May Half Marathon cost to enter?

The typical entry is $40, with paid entries running from $20 up to $113. Entry fees climb as race day gets closer, so the same race is usually cheapest the week it opens.

What is a good Half Marathon time?

Across the 4 of these May Half Marathon races with published results from past editions, the median finisher ran 2:19:18, and the median winning time was 1:22:03. So anything under 2:19:18 puts you in the faster half of a typical field. That is the middle of these RunSignup fields, walkers and charity entrants included, not a national average.

How big is a typical May Half Marathon field?

The median one finished 596 runners, across the 4 of these May Half Marathon races with published results from past editions. Most are far smaller than the big-city events people picture, which means less crowding at the start and a friendlier field, with a last recorded finisher at 4:27:10.
