About the Run on Round Lake 5K & Youth 1 Mile

The course starts on a school campus, heads out onto a road that gets closed for the race, then moves onto a cross country trail through sand, dirt, and grass before looping back to where it began. The terrain shift is real, so expect softer ground in the middle section after a paved start.

Common Questions About the Run on Round Lake 5K & Youth 1 Mile

Will I finish last at the Run on Round Lake 5K & Youth 1 Mile?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 35:32, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:03:48, 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 on Round Lake 5K & Youth 1 Mile a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (79 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 on Round Lake 5K & Youth 1 Mile?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 17:54 while the median finisher took 35:32. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
