About the Time to Paddy 5K/10K & Lucky 13.1 - Tampa

This is a St. Paddy's Day-themed road race in Tampa with several distance options, including a half marathon. The course details are not published in advance and can shift based on permits, so the route is a bit of a variable, though the organizers commit to delivering whatever distance you signed up for.

Race-morning packet pickup opens well before the gun, so no separate trip the day before is needed. A kids dash runs just before the main race, and age group awards are posted at the registration tent as soon as runners finish.

Common Questions About the Time to Paddy 5K/10K & Lucky 13.1 - Tampa

Will I finish last at the Time to Paddy 5K/10K & Lucky 13.1 - Tampa?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 34:28, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:00:07, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Time to Paddy 5K/10K & Lucky 13.1 - Tampa a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (123 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 Time to Paddy 5K/10K & Lucky 13.1 - Tampa?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 18:46 while the median finisher took 34:28. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.

Where can I train for the Time to Paddy 5K/10K & Lucky 13.1 - Tampa?

Join a local run club. Run Tampa, Run the Heights, Run Club for MFs That Don't Run and others in Tampa welcome runners of all paces, and a weekly group run is the most reliable way to hold a training block together.
