About the Selah's Grace 5K Run/Walk

This is a holiday morning run through Cicero, organized to raise money for a local nonprofit that supports families who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss. The cause shapes the atmosphere; people show up with intention. Patriotic attire is part of the tradition, and there is a prize for the best outfit.

The start and finish are in the parking lot of a local church. Check-in opens early in the morning before the race gets underway, so there is time to get situated before the gun. Donations and sponsorships are accepted beyond the entry fee if you want to contribute further to the cause.

Common Questions About the Selah's Grace 5K Run/Walk

Will I finish last at the Selah's Grace 5K Run/Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 39:10, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:07:07, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Selah's Grace 5K Run/Walk a good first 5K?

It is a small race (185 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 Selah's Grace 5K Run/Walk?

The 5K winner ran 16:26 while the median finisher took 39:10. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
