About the Spring Fling - Dallas

The race runs through Little Elm Park, right on the water, so there is scenery to carry you through. Several distance options are available, and the chip-timed distances come with age group awards and a trophy for the overall winners. A DJ calls out names as runners cross the finish line, and the race mascot has been known to make an appearance.

Packet pickup opens early morning before the start, so there is no need to come the night before. After finishing, the Race Rally Tent has snacks and refreshments. Awards are handled on the spot at the registration tent, so you do not have to wait long to find out how you placed.

Common Questions About the Spring Fling - Dallas

Will I finish last at the Spring Fling - Dallas?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.11 Miles field finished slower than 40:23, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:07:34, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Spring Fling - Dallas a good first 3.11 Miles?

A field of 223 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.11 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Spring Fling - Dallas?

The 3.11 Miles winner ran 21:25 while the median finisher took 40:23. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
