A little
good to know.
All the details. None of the pre-race nerves.
First time?
You belong.
2027 dates and registration details are on the way. Start with your city’s event page for announcements.
Where is Average Joe Run heading in 2027?
West Palm Beach, Orlando, San Diego, Irvine, Hollywood Beach, Miami, Naples, and Tampa are on the 2027 lineup. All dates are TBA. Venues, start times, and registration details will be announced on each city’s event page.
Do I have to run the whole 5K?
Nope. Run, jog, or walk the 3.1-mile course at your own pace. First-timers, regular runners, and everyone in between are welcome. Runners start toward the front, with walkers toward the middle and back.
How do the Average Joe & Average Jane awards work?
The middle male and female finishers earn our signature Average Joe and Average Jane awards. There are also overall and age-group awards, so the celebration reaches beyond the fastest finishers. Check your event page for its award details.
What comes with my registration?
Your race entry includes an event shirt, race bib, finisher medal, and race certificate, plus unlimited donuts and coffee, and the race-day celebration. Visit your event listing for the details of that race.
Are strollers welcome?
Yes, strollers are permitted. Please start toward the back of the pack and allow space for other participants.
Can I bring my dog?
Pets are not permitted at Average Joe Run events for participant safety. If you have an accessibility question, contact the event team through the race listing.
Where do I pick up my race packet?

Will there be water and restrooms?
Water is available at events, with water stations along the 5K course. Restrooms are available at the start and finish area. Check the event information for any venue-specific details.
Where can I find my results?
