About the Timothy Murphy 10K

The course runs point-to-point along a trail beside a state highway, starting inside a state park and ending on the main street of Middleburgh as the town's fall festival and Oktoberfest are underway. The terrain is mostly flat with a gentle downhill tendency and a handful of short climbs. Finishing inside a street festival means there is actual crowd noise at the line.

A bus runs from Middleburgh High School to the start before the race, which is worth knowing because this is a one-way course with no return transportation. Parking is at the high school and a nearby soccer complex. Anyone driving to the start should plan for a drop-off, since cars cannot stay at the park once the race begins.

Common Questions About the Timothy Murphy 10K

Will I finish last at the Timothy Murphy 10K?

Almost certainly not. Half the 10K field finished slower than 1:05:53, and the last recorded finisher came in around 2:02:13, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Timothy Murphy 10K a good first 10K?

It is a small race (158 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 10K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Timothy Murphy 10K?

The 10K winner ran 38:30 while the median finisher took 1:05:53. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
