Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 36:01, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:17:42, 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 332 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 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 5K winner ran 16:59 while the median finisher took 36:01. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
