The Run Richmond 16.19 has been held every year since at least 2022. 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 Jul 27, 2026.
Set a goal and get a pace band: every mile split on a card sized for your phone lock screen, so race morning needs no math.

Almost certainly not. Half the 6.19K field finished slower than 58:57, and the last recorded finisher came in around 2:16:06, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
With 1,152 finishers there are runners at every pace, so you are never out on your own. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 6.19K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 6.19K winner ran 24:41 while the median finisher took 58:57. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
