About the Jaguar Twilight Trek 5K Run/Walk and 1-Mile Walk

The race starts and finishes on the track behind Genoa Middle School, heading out past an elementary school and onto a trail before turning back the same way. The shorter walk follows the same path for the first stretch, then reverses. Both courses stay off main roads the entire way, and music plays at the finish area on the track.

This is a school PTSA event, so the start area has a kids' run built in before the main races go off. Everything takes place on the school grounds, which keeps the whole morning contained in one spot.

Common Questions About the Jaguar Twilight Trek 5K Run/Walk and 1-Mile Walk

Will I finish last at the Jaguar Twilight Trek 5K Run/Walk and 1-Mile Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 31:47, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:04:10, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Jaguar Twilight Trek 5K Run/Walk and 1-Mile Walk a good first 5K?

It is a small race (88 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 Jaguar Twilight Trek 5K Run/Walk and 1-Mile Walk?

The 5K winner ran 17:24 while the median finisher took 31:47. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
