5k - Short for 5 kilometers is nearly equivalent to 3.1 miles. This race is common in cross country for high schoolers (boys) and at collegiate and world levels on the track. Kenenisa Bekele is currently the world leader in the 5K at 12:48.09 (track)

5K is close to 3.1 miles.
This is a standard distance for many road races and high school cross country races.

It's 5 kilometers. Since a K is very roughly half a mile, you're pretty close.
