About the PACK THE PANTRY 4-MILE RELAY RACE

This is a relay race, so you and a partner each run half the total distance and your times are combined. It starts and finishes at Grace Baptist Church in Somerset. The course itself is road running, and the format makes it a good excuse to rope in a friend who might not want to tackle the whole thing alone.

Packet pickup and race-day registration both open at the church before the start. A free kids' fun run goes off shortly after the main race begins. Awards go to the top overall teams and to division and age-group winners within the relay field.

Common Questions About the PACK THE PANTRY 4-MILE RELAY RACE

Will I finish last at the PACK THE PANTRY 4-MILE RELAY RACE?

Almost certainly not. Half the 4 Miles field finished slower than 31:37, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:03:13, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the PACK THE PANTRY 4-MILE RELAY RACE a good first 4 Miles?

It is a small race (41 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 4 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the PACK THE PANTRY 4-MILE RELAY RACE?

The 4 Miles winner ran 21:19 while the median finisher took 31:37. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
