I loves this race
I personally loved the point-to-point course. So much better than running around a track! 10/10 would do again! The race was very well organized. MORE

This race is a great way to kick off the In The Streets festival every year, and it’s awesome that the net proceeds are donated to local nonprofit programs and organizations. The custom-designed awards were amazing this year, and the volunteers really make the day happen.
The awards ceremony was a bit delayed this year, but I’m sure that our race director will get that sorted out for 2020.
Fun downtown run; great for a 1 mile PR!

The Market Street Mile is a delightful little race that’s been a Frederick staple for many years now. It’s a point-to-point run on Frederick’s most prominent downtown street, Market Street, that kicks off Frederick’s annual “In the Streets” festival. The course itself is beautiful and highlights the loveliest parts of Frederick’s downtown area, and because of all the prep going on for In the Streets, there is excellent crowd support. It’s also great place to PR because the last 3/4 of the race is slightly downhill.
Other positive things:
– Plenty of parking.
– Nice awards and post-race snacks.
– Very well-organized.
– There are many different heats for like runners to run together: women’s, men’s, kid’s, master’s, and an untimed family fun run.
Two other things to note:
– I don’t think race registration includes a shirt – you have to purchase separately.
– If you don’t register early, the price of the race goes up pretty high.
