New Date and Distance
The 11th Annual Mystic Runners Classic is back and better than ever. Formerly the Swimsuit Classic, the Mystic Runners Classic is sure to be a huge hit. We have added a 10K, on top of the 5K and Kid's Fun Run. After 10 years of hosting our event in the middle of the summer heat, we have decided to move the Mystic Runners Classic into the heart of fall road race season. The September 24th date means better running weather and with the addition of a 10K, the perfect tune up for your fall marathon season.
Our Course - Flat and Fast
Both the 5K and 10K course travel around beautiful Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield, MA. This flat and fast course will give first time runners a chance to enjoy the views and all those seasoned veterans a chance to go for a PR.
Finish Line Festival
After you collect your finisher medal, cheer on your fellow runners and enjoy our Finish Line Festival. Celebrate what is sure to be an impressive finish with post race food, music and more.
