Another website that I am glad that I found. Fantastic that retired PhD and industrial statistician David Dyer has turned his many decades of experience to the thing he loves. Running. These median 5k times are based on data from 1283 races in the US. Finish at the median time for your age group and you have a 50% of coming first. As you would expect the larger the race, the quicker the time. I am 53 years old with a recent 5k of 19 mins 51 seconds. That would give me a 50% chance of coming first in my age group in medium sized races. Well with a look.
