Brookline Bolt 5K Run/Walk by Scribbles

Join us for the Brookline PTOs 9th Annual Brookline Bolt 5K Run/Walk by Scribbles on Sunday, May 18, 2025! We will again be holding this year’s run/walk at beautiful Camp Tevya, located next to Lake Potanipo.

The 5K course is out and back on the picturesque Tevya Section of the Brookline Rail Trail. While the terrain is mostly flat, it might be difficult to navigate with a stroller (jogging strollers handle the course just fine). Walkers and runners are all welcome! Bibs can be picked up the morning of the race. Please note that pets are not allowed for this event. 

Traditionally this race has been a major fundraiser for the Brookline PTO. The PTO is graciously supported by many local businesses, and once again we will bring back race day shirts to highlight our sponsors! Each 5k registration includes a race day shirt with Early Bird registration! We will have a limited number of race day shirts available to purchase via Advanced registration and the day of the event. Shirts will be sold for $20. Cash, check, or credit card will be accepted.

The Kids Fun Run is back! The Fun Run is free for all kids, regardless if participating in the 5k Run/Walk or not. The Fun Run will begin at 9:30am sharp, and will be immediately followed by the 5k at 10:00am. Fun Run registrants have an option to purchase a shirt at sign-up for $20 (fee is waived if also registering for the 5k). Make sure to collect your Fun Run award at the end of the Fun Run race!

5k pricing for this year is as follows:

●        Ages 4 and under will be free!

●        Ages 5-12 will be $20 through 4/15, or $25 from 4/16 through 5/16

●        Ages 13+ will be $30 through 4/15, or $35 from 4/16 through 5/16

●       We will have a limited amount of same-day registrations available for $30 (ages 5-12) or $40 (ages 13+)

Donate to the food pantry on race day to enter to win amazing raffle prizes! On race day, each 5k race participant will receive one free raffle ticket with a donation of one or more unexpired items for the Brookline Food Pantry. Additional raffle tickets will be available for purchase.

If you are interested in being a sponsor for the 2025 race, please contact the Bolt Committee at BrooklineNHPTOBolt@gmail.com for more information.

We look forward to cheering for all our runners and walkers on Sunday, May 18, 2025!
