Race Information

This USATF certified FREE race was first held in 2015 to help Maine’s most prominent mill town, which was devastated by the closing of their major employer. Runner's World Magazine picked up the story shortly after, and as they say, the rest is history!

The only requirement for runners is to generously support local businesses and contribute to the Katahdin region in some way.
