The 5K will benefit Heart of Biddeford, a Main Street community organization that works to foster economic development and improve the downtown and quality of life within its boundaries.

Registration is $20. On-site registration available from 7-8 a.m. on race day for $25.

At the intersection, runners will turn right onto Alfred Street for 1.15 miles before curving right onto Main St. After turning right onto Main St., runners will turn right again onto Water Street, and finish in front of Mechanics Park.
