About the Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run

The race starts and finishes at a local running store on Harding Street, so packet pickup and the start line are the same spot. The course runs through Lafayette, and the event benefits The Hub Lafayette Urban Ministries, a local organization focused on community restoration. Age group awards go deep, covering brackets from young kids through runners in their eighties.

Packet pickup happens at the Geaux Run by Fleet Feet location on Harding Street the afternoon before the race, with another window at the start area on race morning before the gun goes off.

Common Questions About the The Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run

Will I finish last at the Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 31:49, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:09:23, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (118 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Hub Lafayette Runwell 5K Walk/Run?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 18:21 while the median finisher took 31:49. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
