About the RIT Brick City Homecoming 5k
The course loops around the campus at RIT, so you are running through the grounds rather than out into the surrounding neighborhood. It reads as a farewell lap timed around the university's homecoming weekend, which gives the start line a bit of a reunion feeling even if you are just there to run.
Same-day registration opens before the gun goes off, handled out of the Grace Watson Lobby. The event is interpreted, so deaf and hard-of-hearing runners are accommodated. Current students run free; everyone else pays a flat entry fee.

The RIT Brick City Homecoming 5k has been held every year since at least 2016. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
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 18, 2026.
