About the 47th Annual Nutri-Run 20k & 5 Mile Race

The Nutri-Run starts at The Chapel and sends runners through Aboite trail sections and quiet neighborhood streets. It is an early spring race, and the organizers are upfront about it: weather on race day is genuinely unpredictable, which is part of what gives this one its character. Both distance options share that same mix of soft trail and residential pavement.

Bib pickup happens the morning of the race at The Chapel, where the start line is. Awards go deep into age groups for both distances, with masters categories recognized separately from the overall winners.

Common Questions About the 47th Annual Nutri-Run 20k & 5 Mile Race

Will I finish last at the 47th Annual Nutri-Run 20k & 5 Mile Race?

Almost certainly not. Half the 20K field finished slower than 1:51:14, and the last recorded finisher came in around 3:17:03, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the 47th Annual Nutri-Run 20k & 5 Mile Race a good first 20K?

It is a small race (72 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 20K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the 47th Annual Nutri-Run 20k & 5 Mile Race?

The 20K winner ran 1:17:46 while the median finisher took 1:51:14. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
