About the Veterans Day 5K - Mitch Park - Sun Nov 15 2026

The course runs through Mitch Park, starting near the Santa Fe entrance. The terrain is park-style running, the kind of ground that works for walkers, strollers, and dogs alongside runners. After the finish, there is music, food, and booths from local veteran service organizations explaining ways to support active duty members, veterans, and their families.

The start is at the Santa Fe entrance to Mitch Park, so that is your landmark for parking and meeting people. The post-race area has enough going on that there is reason to stick around after you finish.

Common Questions About the Veterans Day 5K - Mitch Park - Sun Nov 15 2026

Will I finish last at the Veterans Day 5K - Mitch Park - Sun Nov 15 2026?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 38:07, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:27:26, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Veterans Day 5K - Mitch Park - Sun Nov 15 2026 a good first 5K?

It is a small race (119 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 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Veterans Day 5K - Mitch Park - Sun Nov 15 2026?

The 5K winner ran 21:04 while the median finisher took 38:07. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
