About the St. Dot's Treasure Run: Ruby Run (5K), Sapphire Stroll (1 Mile), and Gold Rush

The 5K winds through the residential neighborhoods around the school, starting and finishing on Burmont Road out front. There is also a shorter walk option and a quick dash for young kids. The course is timed professionally, and awards go to top finishers overall, by age group, and to top alumni finishers.

Packet pickup runs the evening before at the school gym, with a second window on race morning. Parking in the school lot is limited, with only one entrance open during the event, so parking in the surrounding neighborhood is worth considering. Walk-up registration is available on the morning of the race.

Common Questions About the St. Dot's Treasure Run: Ruby Run (5K), Sapphire Stroll (1 Mile), and Gold Rush

Will I finish last at the St. Dot's Treasure Run: Ruby Run (5K), Sapphire Stroll (1 Mile), and Gold Rush?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 27:01, and the last recorded finisher came in around 40:58, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the St. Dot's Treasure Run: Ruby Run (5K), Sapphire Stroll (1 Mile), and Gold Rush a good first 5K?

It is a small race (75 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 St. Dot's Treasure Run: Ruby Run (5K), Sapphire Stroll (1 Mile), and Gold Rush?

The 5K winner ran 20:03 while the median finisher took 27:01. That spread points to a relatively quick field, so expect a competitive front end.
