A gorgeous run past the Cliff Walk, through a secluded section of Salve Regina University before a loop through a neighborhood and back down to Easton's Beach.
The Beach Mile
The Beach Mile will start at noon time, on the beach adjacent to the finish line. It is an out and back on Easton’s Beach, finishing under the Race Arch. As the race is on the beach, please plan for uneven surfaces, beach debris, seaweed, shells, all those wonderful items that we love about the ocean. This will be part of the challenge of completing the course.
