RRRC Pony Pasture 5K, in memory of Peter Still

About the RRRC Pony Pasture 5K, in memory of Peter Still

The course runs through Pony Pasture, a riverside park on the south side of Richmond. It is a road race, so expect pavement, and the organizers ask runners to leave headphones behind to stay aware of traffic and course marshals. Strollers are welcome, though they must line up at the rear of the field.

Parking at the park fills up fast. The nearest overflow option is a shopping center up the road, which means a solid walk to the start, so arriving early matters. Packet pickup runs the evening before at a running store on Willow Lawn Drive, with race-morning pickup available at the park as well.

Common Questions About the RRRC Pony Pasture 5K, in memory of Peter Still

Will I finish last at the RRRC Pony Pasture 5K, in memory of Peter Still?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 30:32, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:01:38, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the RRRC Pony Pasture 5K, in memory of Peter Still a good first 5K?

A field of 280 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. 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 RRRC Pony Pasture 5K, in memory of Peter Still?

The 5K winner ran 15:23 while the median finisher took 30:32. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
