About the Run with the Bobcats 5K/1 Mile November 1, 2026

The course runs on the campus of a state college, on what the cross country teams use as their home ground. It is flat throughout, with a shorter option that follows a wellness trail dedicated to a long-time supporter of the program. The terrain is open and runnable, and the whole thing is put on by the college's own cross country teams.

Packet pickup and the start are both on campus. There is food and drink after the race. Parking is on the college grounds, so arrival is straightforward.

Common Questions About the Run with the Bobcats 5K/1 Mile November 1, 2026

Will I finish last at the Run with the Bobcats 5K/1 Mile November 1, 2026?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 25:17, and the last recorded finisher came in around 55:59, 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 with the Bobcats 5K/1 Mile November 1, 2026 a good first 5K?

It is a small race (123 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 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Run with the Bobcats 5K/1 Mile November 1, 2026?

The 5K winner ran 15:37 while the median finisher took 25:17. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
