About the race

A good pick for your first race.

Training for it

Most 5K plans take six to ten weeks. If you cannot run for 30 minutes yet, start with a couch-to-5K plan first.

  • Run three or four times a week, mostly easy.
  • Add one faster session a week once the easy runs feel comfortable.
  • Run the course or something similar once before race day if you can.
