Common Questions About the THE MELISSA BIG DILL 5K & FUN RUN

Will I finish last at the MELISSA BIG DILL 5K & FUN RUN?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 35:07, and the last recorded finisher came in around 57:51, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the MELISSA BIG DILL 5K & FUN RUN a good first 3.1 Miles?

A field of 212 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 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the MELISSA BIG DILL 5K & FUN RUN?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 15:54 while the median finisher took 35:07. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
