Races Near Me: Upcoming Running Races

Welcome to the 6th Annual Haunted Forest Marathon Weekend Family Friendly / Themed event featuring a Full Marathon (26.2 miles), a Half Marathon (13.1 miles), and 5K (3.1 miles). First mile on the road / remainder of the race on hard packed crushed limestone and blacktop. Marathon has a total of 57 feet of elevation over the 26.2 mile distance! A GREAT Boston Qualifier which includes a SECOND medal if you qualify on race day. 18% of our 2025 Marathon participants qualified for Boston. AWARDS handed out on a rolling basis throughout the morning Don't forget our "Smash the PR PUMPKIN" activity if you run a personal best on our course.

This unique race will take place completely within the Grafton Correctional secure perimeter. *New course* We will run a roughly 2 mile loop; 3 laps for the 10K and 13 for the Marathon. We will be running with residents that are part of the Running2bwell training program that recently started at GCI and all proceeds will support Running2bwell. We recently bought $6000 worth of shoes for the men at GCI and we're hoping to raise that amount at the race. Runners will receive a custom t-shirt (sizes not guaranteed). Most importantly, you'll have the chance to run some miles with men that are working hard to improve their lives on their home court. Female runners are allowed but there is a strict dress code. Shirts must have sleeves, shorts must go mid-thigh. No tight or form-fitting apparel. More rules may follow as I get them. Do not give anything (hats, shirts, etc.) to the men at GCI. Guest runners must be 21 or over. Guest runners cannot be currently on an inmate visitation pass. For security and logistical reasons we're limiting entries to the first 30 to register. You must arrive by 6:00 am to clear security. This isn't your usual race. Runners cannot bring anything except water bottles, hats, and watches. No phones, headphones, etc. You must bring a photo id and will need to lock your car keys in a locker at the entry point. Everyone is subject to search. While this is one of the safest facilities in the state, it's still a prison, and security for all is the highest priority. If you can't make it, please consider making a donation of any size to support this new and exciting program.
