Final answer:

The distribution of X is X ~ N(20, 2.5^2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution of X, which represents the average time to run the 5 K fun run for randomly selected runners, is X ~ N(20, 2.5^2). This means that X follows a normal distribution with a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 2.5.
