Common Questions About the Treat Trot Des Moines

Will I finish last at the Treat Trot Des Moines?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 36:29, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:10:04, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Treat Trot Des Moines a good first 3.1 Miles?

It is a small race (156 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 Treat Trot Des Moines?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 21:12 while the median finisher took 36:29. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
