Common Questions About the Squirrel 5K, & 10K at Akron, PA (12)

Will I finish last at the Squirrel 5K, & 10K at Akron, PA (12)?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 32:25, and the last recorded finisher came in around 49:09, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Squirrel 5K, & 10K at Akron, PA (12) a good first 5K?

It is a small race (18 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 Squirrel 5K, & 10K at Akron, PA (12)?

The 5K winner ran 22:38 while the median finisher took 32:25. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
