The Mayor's Mile

Come Run a Track Mile!

On November 9th, we're taking over the track and trails at Bishop Fenwick in Peabody, MA to race! Whether you're new to running or you're already a competitive athlete, come see what kind of time you can throw down! All are welcome. We have a real treat from the organizers of the Bermuda Triangle Challenge: They are giving away *16 FREE trips to Bermuda to run their Butterfield Mile on January 16th in beautiful Hamilton, Bermuda! The free trips will be awarded as follows:

• Top 4 Open Males
• Top 4 Open Females
• Top 2 Masters Males
• Top 2 Masters Females
• 4 Randomly selected registered runners!

NEW THIS YEAR: We have added a 5k race on Bishop Fenwick's Beautiful cross country course! Runners who choose the 5k option will be eligible to win one of the 4 raffled trips to Bermuda's race weekend. 

Like year, we are going to randomly select FOUR (4) registered runners to receive free trips as well. So even if you're not flirting with a 4:00 mile, you might still take an expenses paid trip to Bermuda! You can find more details on the registration page. Remember, we want to see everyone come out to run the mile in Peabody... but if you happen to run one of the fastest times of the day, or if you get lucky you've got an epic prize coming your way!
