About the Hope in Motion 5K

The course is a lollipop shape that starts and finishes under the Clinton Bridge, running along Riverside Drive beside the water before looping out onto quieter back roads. The terrain is mostly flat near the river, and the route has a calm, open feel to it. The race is organized around raising awareness of substance abuse prevention.

Parking is in lots adjacent to the bridge near the start and finish. Restrooms are available at the start and finish area, and there is a water station out on the course near the turnaround.

Common Questions About the Hope in Motion 5K

Will I finish last at the Hope in Motion 5K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 25:34, and the last recorded finisher came in around 38:03, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Hope in Motion 5K a good first 5K?

It is a small race (14 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 Hope in Motion 5K?

The 5K winner ran 20:38 while the median finisher took 25:34. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
