MSD 10K Course

Our 10K course begins and ends in two of Portsmouth's most historic areas.

The Market Square Day Festival affords us the opportunity to close most major Downtown streets. As a result, our start line is in the heart of our City, Market Square.

In one of the areas most breathtaking race scenes, nearly 2,000 runners and walkers make their way down Congress Street lined with festive booths and cheering crowds.

The course winds its way around town giving participants a unique look at our City and, in particular, the people who embrace this race. Don't be surprised to see neighborhood breakfast parties along the route!

Our finish line on Marcy Street takes runners and walkers onto Puddle Dock and the grounds of the Strawbery Banke Museum for hospitality and awards.
