About the Fuzzy Peach Trail Run

The course winds through an active horse farm, so you are running past fenced pastures and tree roots along the way. The trail itself is unpaved and uneven in spots, with roots demanding some attention underfoot. The start and finish are on pavement, and volunteers are out on the course to keep you pointed in the right direction.

Frozen yogurt from the race's namesake shop is waiting at the finish. The shorter walk option sticks mostly to gravel with a brief stretch over grass.

Common Questions About the The Fuzzy Peach Trail Run

Will I finish last at the Fuzzy Peach Trail Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 36:25, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:12:42, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Fuzzy Peach Trail Run a good first 5K?

A field of 398 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. 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 Fuzzy Peach Trail Run?

The 5K winner ran 20:28 while the median finisher took 36:25. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
