About the Live.Love.Serve. 4H 5K

The course winds through the hamlet of Hortonville in a figure-eight shape, which means you cross back through the center partway through before heading out again. It is a certified course, so the distance is measured true. The surroundings are rural and small-town, the kind of place where the streets are quiet on a race morning.

The race is a fundraiser put on by a local 4-H club, with proceeds going toward a club scholarship. That gives the event a genuinely neighborhood feel. Expect volunteers who actually know each other and most of the spectators to know someone running.

Common Questions About the Live.Love.Serve. 4H 5K

Will I finish last at the Live.Love.Serve. 4H 5K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 29:24, and the last recorded finisher came in around 56:57, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Live.Love.Serve. 4H 5K a good first 5K?

It is a small race (67 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 Live.Love.Serve. 4H 5K?

The 5K winner ran 17:10 while the median finisher took 29:24. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
