About the St. Michael Daze and Knights 5K and Youth Color Daze Run
This chip-timed race runs through Saint Michael as part of the town's summer festival weekend, so the atmosphere is more neighborhood block party than pure race. Strollers and leashed dogs are a normal sight at the start. Right after the main race finishes, a youth color run takes over, so families tend to stick around.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the Town Square parking lot, with race-morning pickup available as well. Parking is at the Town Center lot and on nearby side streets. The festival itself runs across the weekend, so the finish area feeds directly into a larger outdoor event.

The St. Michael Daze and Knights 5K and Youth Color Daze Run has been held every year since at least 2025. 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 Nov 12, 2026.
