Common Questions About the Turkey Trails - Greater Chicago

Will I finish last at the Turkey Trails - Greater Chicago?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 37:05, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:16:20, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Turkey Trails - Greater Chicago a good first 3.1 Miles?

A field of 267 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 Turkey Trails - Greater Chicago?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 18:56 while the median finisher took 37:05. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
