3 Mile and 10K Race Information
The Wachusett Mountain Race is a proud part of the USATF-NE Mountain Circuit 2026.
For circuit scoring, you will run the 3 mile course uphill to the top of Mount Wachusett.
Optionally, you can continue on with us to the Finish Line located at the bottom of the mountain to complete a full 10K. All 10K runners will receive their race split at the top of the mountain (which is the number used for mountain circuit scoring) as well as their 10K time. Either option is the same price.
Cash prizes for the male, female, and non-binary winners of the 3 Mile Race and the 10K Race.
Merchandise prizes for the age group winners (0-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80+) of the 10K race. There are no age group prizes for the 3 Mile Race.
