5K Road Race

Sign-up here for the 2024 Eliot Festival 5K Road Race.

You won’t be gone long when you run the Eliot Festival 5K This is a fast, smooth, straight course.  And it shows off our beautiful Eliot countryside quite nicely.  For you competitive types these course records & could be a challenge: Cathy O’Brien 16:06.18 in 1996 (also the Maine State 5K Road Race record) and Patrick Tarpy 14:15.72 in 2006. 

Please note for 2024 we will be starting at the Police Station due to construction on the Town Hall. Consult your Runners email for details.

Do you love track & field, but have hung up your spikes? Come and volunteer during the Eliot Festival 5K Road Race. We need timers, people to assist runners, and other event jobs that track people know how to do.  It promises to be great fun. Check out EliotFestival.com/volunteers/.
