About the LAKESIDE LOOPS 5K AND 10K

The course runs through Stony Creek Metropark on trail, with woods and water alongside most of the route. It is an evening race, so the light filters through the trees late in the day, and Eastwood Beach serves as the hub for the start, finish, and the hangout afterward. Runners, walkers, and ruckers share the trails, so expect a range of paces and plenty of room.

Packet pickup and onsite registration open in the late afternoon on race day at the beach area. Parking requires a daily or annual Huron-Clinton Metropark vehicle pass, which you can buy at the gate. After the race, the beach area stays open for hanging around, so there is no rush to leave.

Common Questions About the LAKESIDE LOOPS 5K AND 10K

Will I finish last at the LAKESIDE LOOPS 5K AND 10K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 40:55, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:19:43, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the LAKESIDE LOOPS 5K AND 10K a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (147 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the LAKESIDE LOOPS 5K AND 10K?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 17:29 while the median finisher took 40:55. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
