About the Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk

Run For Jimmy honors a runner who used daily miles to manage his recovery and mental health. The start area sits near the roundabout at the edge of the airport. The chip-timed distance and the untimed walk share the same morning, and the race carries a clear purpose: raising awareness of suicide and its ties to addiction.

Bib pickup happens the afternoon before at a small shelter in South Park, with a second window on race morning for those who cannot make the earlier session. Only runners in the chip-timed distance need a bib; walkers do not.

Common Questions About the Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk

Will I finish last at the Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 33:34, and the last recorded finisher came in around 50:48, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (35 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Run For Jimmy 5k / 1 Mile Walk?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 21:30 while the median finisher took 33:34. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
