Common Questions About the 49th Annual Peru Lions Club John P. Adams Memorial Turkey Trot

Will I finish last at the 49th Annual Peru Lions Club John P. Adams Memorial Turkey Trot?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 32:53, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:07:15, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the 49th Annual Peru Lions Club John P. Adams Memorial Turkey Trot a good first 5K?

A field of 443 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.

How competitive is the 49th Annual Peru Lions Club John P. Adams Memorial Turkey Trot?

The 5K winner ran 17:09 while the median finisher took 32:53. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
