5K ROAD RACE

Full details and online registration for the 33rd Old Hallowell Day 5K now available at RunReg.com!

Race takes place in Hallowell, Maine on Saturday, July 21, 2012.

Online Registration Closes on Friday, July 20, 2012 at 12:00 NOON ET

This year’s race will be chip timed!  After several years of runners asking for this we are now able to join the ranks of other races that are chip timed!

Race follows city streets and areas of historic Hallowell.  Start is flat and begins near the Cotton Mill Apartments on Water Street.  The course proceeds up Water Street to Park Street where runners will turn left.  At Second Street the runners turn left and proceed to the end of the street (which is at Litchfield Road).  Then turning right, the course proceeds uphill to Middle Street.  From this end of Middle the course is mostly downhill and continues the full length of Middle ending in Vaughan Field where the awards will also be held.   Click here for a map of the course, it will be 3.1 miles not the 3.09 shown!

Walkers are welcome in this 5K!
Number pick-up and race day registration will be at Hallowell Seafood opposite the Kennebec River boat landing downtown Hallowell between 6:00 and 7:00 am.  Refreshments and awards will be held at Vaughn Field near the race finish.

T-shirts are guaranteed for anyone registering by  July 1st!

Fun Run for kids 10 and under will be held immediately following the 5K and before the awards for the 5K.  Distance less than 1 mile (approximately 1K) and will be held on Vaughan Field.  There is no entry fee, it’s a come and run event.  All children (up to 100) will receive a ribbon!  Come join the fun.  No registration is necessary for the fun run!

  1. Any more info on the kids’ fun run? Time? Place? Fee?

    • The kids fun run will happen right after the last runner for the 5K finishes. It will be held on Vaughan Field and will be less than one mile….not officially measured yet, but I am guessing about 1K in distance. Kids 10 and under are invited to participate and all finishes (up to 100) will receive a neat race ribbon! There is no entry fee and no entry process, just line up and run. The awards for the 5K will follow the kids fun run.
