Evaluate the article
Lead Section: The lead of this article is fairly strong, as it is concise and accurately describes what a 5k is. However, there is a section about mental strategy that does not appear in the lead.

Content: The article has content which is simple and relevant. The information is also up to date and easy to understand. It could deal with more equity issues, such as the domination of Africans in the distance.

Tone and Balance: The article is neutral even when talking about impressive racing performances. The article does not attempt to persuade the reader of one opinion.

Sources and References: All facts are backed up by an extensive list of references. The links in the references also work, and there is a large variety of sources.

Organization and Writing Quality: The article is very easy to read and has no grammar errors. It is well-organized into reasonable and thought-out sections.

Images and Media: The image does not improve the reader's understanding that much. It does however promote inclusivity as it depicts an older gentleman running a 5k. The picture also meets Wikipedia's requirements.

Talk Page Discussion: The conversations in the talk page revolve around the improvement of the article as well as discrepancies within this article in relation to other running articles. The article is rated as C-Class and is rated as low importance. It is a part of the Running WikiProject.

Overall Impressions: Overall, this article is very useful and well put together. Its strengths are its concise and easily understandable descriptions. The article could be improved by adding sections about the history of the 5k and the influence of carbon-plated shoes. It is overall a well-developed article.
