About the "Move Along" Day

The race is held on the campus of Lebanon Valley College in Annville, a setting that mixes athletic fields and open grounds. The event benefits Covenant House Pennsylvania, which supports young adults experiencing homelessness, so the atmosphere carries some weight beyond the finish line. Several distance options are offered, making it a morning that draws a broad crowd.

Packet pickup runs the evening before the race on the south side of campus at the college center, with race-morning pickup available as well at a tent near the parking area on the north side. Driving in, you follow signs along Heisey Road past the football field to reach the start area.

Common Questions About the "Move Along" Day

Will I finish last at the "Move Along" Day?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 32:34, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:11:26, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the "Move Along" Day a good first 5K?

It is a small race (111 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 "Move Along" Day?

The 5K winner ran 22:07 while the median finisher took 32:34. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
