Common Questions About the Minden Run for St. Jude

Will I finish last at the Minden Run for St. Jude?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 45:12, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:15:11, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Minden Run for St. Jude a good first 3.1 Miles?

A field of 483 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Minden Run for St. Jude?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 20:00 while the median finisher took 45:12. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
