About the Spring Dash
The course starts and finishes at McEuen Park, right along the lakefront. Expect blooming trees and water views for most of the route, with the kind of spring morning air that makes you glad you signed up. Several distance options mean the park fills with runners of very different paces, all sharing the same scenery.
Packet pickup runs the afternoon before the race at a local outdoor and ski shop, which has plenty of parking and a small expo with running gear on sale. If you miss that, race-morning pickup opens early at the pavilion in McEuen Park. Strollers are allowed at the back of the start. There is no race-day registration, so sort that out beforehand.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2026 results, this is a decent-sized field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Spring Dash has been held every year since at least 2019. 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.
