Harvest Day 5k

Inman, SC

Registration openAnnual since at least 2022

About the Harvest Day 5k

The course runs through downtown Inman and into the surrounding neighborhoods, starting at the fire department. It is a road race through a small town, so expect a mix of main street and residential streets rather than trails or a park loop. Cash prizes go to top finishers overall, with age group awards sponsored by a local shop.

Street parking runs through the downtown area, and the elementary school just north of the start has additional spots. The race is tied to the town's Harvest Day celebration, so there is likely more going on in town after you finish than after a typical weekend race.

Common Questions About the Harvest Day 5k

Will I finish last at the Harvest Day 5k?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 29:09, and the last recorded finisher came in around 53:58, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Harvest Day 5k a good first 5K?

It is a small race (146 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 Harvest Day 5k?

The 5K winner ran 14:51 while the median finisher took 29:09. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
