Portland 10 Miler

The Portland 10 Miler course is an exciting tour of Portland, Maine. Starting in Payson Park, runners will follow a semi-circle along the water in Back Cove. The course follows the Back Cove trail and passes through Back Cove Park before linking up with the Eastern Promenade Trail after passing under Tukey’s Bridge and Route 295. Runners then make their way up Cutter St. from the boat ramp before turning right onto the Eastern Promenade for an out-and-back portion of the course with elevated views of Casco Bay, the islands, and Fort Gorges.

On the eastbound return along Eastern Promenade runners continue past Cutter St. and head down Fore St. towards downtown and Old Port before turning left onto Hancock St. At Hancock the course links up again with the Eastern Promenade Trail until it passes under Tukey’s Bridge again, but this time heading north over the bridge and along Back Cove for the final mile and half before heading back to Payson Park for the finish and race after-party!
