You’d think that the first thing someone would say about a race that runs along the Maine coastline is that it’s beautiful. While clearly that’s true of the TD Beach to Beacon 10K and its incredible scenery, the first thing most people said about this race is how well-run it is. Again, the folks at DMSE Sports put on an amazing point-to-point course from Crescent Beach to Fort Williams, overlooking Casco Bay and the world’s most photographed lighthouse in America, the Portland Head Light.

With a rich 20-year history and regular hosting of some of the fastest runners in the world, Beach to Beacon “promotes and celebrates health, fitness, and giving back.” This race also took home our Green Lion Award for their outstanding commitment to sustainability in our sport.
