About the Reagan's Run

Reagan's Run is held at Wilson Farm Park in Wayne, a community fundraiser built around epilepsy research. The event draws families with children as well as runners chasing a timed result on the course. There is a raffle and snacks afterward, and the atmosphere is shaped more by the cause than by competition.

Bib pickup runs the couple of days before the race at a location in Paoli, with the start at Wilson Farm Park. The organizers suggest arriving a bit early to sort out parking and catch some of the pre-race entertainment they have planned.

Common Questions About the Reagan's Run

Will I finish last at the Reagan's Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 30:32, and the last recorded finisher came in around 54:03, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Reagan's Run a good first 5K?

It is a small race (123 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 Reagan's Run?

The 5K winner ran 18:43 while the median finisher took 30:32. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
