About the Popsicle 5K/10K/Half - Clearwater

The course runs out and back, starting and finishing at a brewing company. The terrain is the Atlanta BeltLine, so expect a paved, purpose-built trail. The route is largely flat, and the out-and-back shape means the turnaround is your halfway marker before you retrace your way back to the finish.

Check-in happens race morning before the start, so there is no need to come the day before. The start area is at the brewery, which also serves as the finish, making it easy to drop a bag and get back to your car after you are done.

Common Questions About the Popsicle 5K/10K/Half - Clearwater

Will I finish last at the Popsicle 5K/10K/Half - Clearwater?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 34:29, and the last recorded finisher came in around 31:31:00, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Popsicle 5K/10K/Half - Clearwater a good first 5K?

It is a small race (27 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 Popsicle 5K/10K/Half - Clearwater?

The 5K winner ran 24:37 while the median finisher took 34:29. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
