Richland, WA
Entry is $35 now and rises to $37.50 after Aug 15, 2027, so registering before then saves $2.50.
The course runs on paved trail, so footing is consistent throughout. The half marathon option covers the route in a couple of loops, which means you pass familiar ground before you finish. Water stops are spaced out along the way, though runners who do not want to slow down will want to carry their own. The half has a pace requirement, so it skews toward finishing over racing.

How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 23, 2026.
Set a goal and get a pace band: every mile split on a card sized for your phone lock screen, so race morning needs no math.

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 36:25, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:08:03, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
It is a small race (153 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.
The 5K winner ran 21:24 while the median finisher took 36:25. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
