About the 6th Annual Lakeside Ten Mile 5K Fun Run

The course runs point-to-point on pavement from the town area out to a marina on Watts Bar Lake, so you finish somewhere different from where you started. The terrain is mostly flat road with gentle rolling sections and lake views along the way. A short gravel stretch marks the very end.

Parking is available at both the start and the finish, and a shuttle runs from the marina back to town afterward. Post-race there are doughnuts, bananas, Gatorade, and water. The race benefits the local volunteer fire department, and first responders lead and trail the field throughout.

Common Questions About the 6th Annual Lakeside Ten Mile 5K Fun Run

Will I finish last at the 6th Annual Lakeside Ten Mile 5K Fun Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 36:16, and the last recorded finisher came in around 57:46, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the 6th Annual Lakeside Ten Mile 5K Fun Run a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (100 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 6th Annual Lakeside Ten Mile 5K Fun Run?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 19:28 while the median finisher took 36:16. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
