About the LET’S GET MOVING EVENT & 5K (4th Annual)

The course is a road 5K in Concord, and the morning is built around more than just the run. There is a shorter buddy run alongside the main race, plus an activity adventure course running at the same time, so the start area has a lot going on. A DJ keeps things moving while families spread out across the different options.

Common Questions About the LET’S GET MOVING EVENT & 5K (4th Annual)

Will I finish last at the LET’S GET MOVING EVENT & 5K (4th Annual)?

Almost certainly not. Half the race field finished slower than 38:59, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:50:21, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the LET’S GET MOVING EVENT & 5K (4th Annual) a good first race?

It is a small race (143 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 race, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the LET’S GET MOVING EVENT & 5K (4th Annual)?

The race winner ran 19:04 while the median finisher took 38:59. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
