Description

 

The annual Boots and Brews 5K celebrates the past and future of Freeport—a gem of Maine’s coast!

From its shoemaking past (in addition to L. L. Bean, Freeport was once home to over 30 shoe and boot factories!) to its current status as a craft beer destination, Freeport has so many stories to tell.

Join us for a 5K downtown, stick around to sample brews from across town (featuring Brickyard Hollow, Goodfire Brewing, Gritty McDuff’s, Maine Beer Company, and Mast Landing Brewing), and get outdoors in Freeport, Maine!

***ONLINE REGISTRATION CLOSES AT 11:59 PM on Wednesday, May 15th***

If you miss online registration you may register in person at our packet pickup event on Friday, May 17th from 4:00 to 7:00 PM at the L.L. Bean Flagship Store or on the morning of the race at 23 Depot St. Freeport.
