Baltimore, MD
Entry is $45 now and rises to $55 after Sep 6, 2026, so registering before then saves $10.
The course runs on the quad of a university campus, which keeps the terrain open and relatively flat. The race benefits a local home for the elderly run by a religious order, so the crowd tends to skew toward families and parish groups rather than competitive runners chasing times. There are a couple of distance options, one a short walk-friendly route and one the longer run.

The Little Sisters of the Poor NUN RUN 5K and 1 Mile Run/Walk has been held every year since at least 2018. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.10686 Miles field finished slower than 34:30, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:08:22, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
A field of 268 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.10686 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 3.10686 Miles winner ran 18:15 while the median finisher took 34:30. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
