About the Run to Remember Memorial 5k

The course is described as scenic and runs through Maynardville. Along the route, markers are placed in memory of victims of drunk and distracted driving, so the race has a quieter, more reflective feel than most. Proceeds benefit MADD, and the connection to that cause shapes the whole morning.

A remembrance ceremony takes place around the race, with stories shared and a collective renewal of the cause's mission. Local sponsors, volunteers, and affected families are all present, which gives the start and finish areas a gathered, purposeful atmosphere rather than a typical race-day buzz.

Common Questions About the Run to Remember Memorial 5k

Will I finish last at the Run to Remember Memorial 5k?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 42:36, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:12:34, 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 to Remember Memorial 5k a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (99 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 to Remember Memorial 5k?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 20:55 while the median finisher took 42:36. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
