About the St. Hubert's 5K-9 Run & Walk

This race is hosted on the grounds of an animal welfare center, and dogs are welcome to run alongside their people. The course is a short road race, and the field tends to draw as many animal lovers as dedicated runners. The shelter campus gives the morning a grounded, purposeful feel that is hard to replicate at a standard road race.

Common Questions About the St. Hubert's 5K-9 Run & Walk

Will I finish last at the St. Hubert's 5K-9 Run & Walk?

Almost certainly not. Half the race field finished slower than 32:33, and the last recorded finisher came in around 59:58, 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. Hubert's 5K-9 Run & Walk a good first race?

It is a small race (190 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 race, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the St. Hubert's 5K-9 Run & Walk?

The race winner ran 2:37 while the median finisher took 32:33. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
