About the SueB 5k
The course starts in Julia Davis Park, between the rose garden and the art museum, then heads out onto the Boise River Greenbelt heading east. It is an out-and-back on paved path along the river, so the surroundings are calm and tree-lined. There is a water stop near the halfway turnaround, and you finish back where you started.
Packet pickup is available in the days before the race at local running stores and at the WCA office in Boise. There is also race-morning pickup at the park for anyone who cannot make it out beforehand. The start area doubles as a resource fair earlier in the morning, open to everyone.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The SueB 5k has been held every year since at least 2023. 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 Jul 27, 2026.
