About the Resolution Run

The course runs out and back through the Carriage Hills subdivision, starting and finishing at Greene County Tech High School. The terrain is flat the whole way, so there is no real elevation to manage. It is a neighborhood route, which means quiet streets and a straightforward, readable layout from start to finish.

Registration and the awards ceremony happen inside the school's community room, which keeps everything sheltered if the weather is rough. The new year's timing means conditions can go either way, so having an indoor home base is a practical thing to know ahead of time.

Common Questions About the Resolution Run

Will I finish last at the Resolution Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 2 Miles field finished slower than 22:20, and the last recorded finisher came in around 40:59, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Resolution Run a good first 2 Miles?

It is a small race (69 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 2 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Resolution Run?

The 2 Miles winner ran 12:41 while the median finisher took 22:20. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
