Common Questions About Racing in Lexington
How early should I register for a race in Lexington?
3 of the 3 races in Lexington already have a price increase scheduled, so entry gets more expensive the longer you leave it. Race pricing almost always steps up as the date approaches, and signing up early is usually the cheapest option.
Are Lexington races beginner-friendly?
Yes, for the most part. Across the 3 races in Lexington with published results, the typical median finish is around 39:27, which means half of every one of those fields came in slower than that. Recreational runners and walk-runners are the bulk of these fields, not the exception.
