Description
This year, celebrate Independence Day early at the Finish at the 50 5K and 10K at Patriot Place. All the fun starts on Tuesday with an all-day outdoor Fitness Expo at Patriot Place. This fun filled day complete with a kid's run inside Gillette Stadium culminates with an exciting 5K and 10K run/walk starting at 6 PM.
NEW RACE DATE: Tuesday, July 3rd
This year both races are the day before July 4th, allowing you to make the 4th of July a two day celebration. The new 5K distance welcomes runners and walkers to celebrate a fit and healthy lifestyle. The course is traffic-free and runs completely within the Patriot Place grounds around Gillette Stadium. NOTE THAT THE 5K WILL USE THE RAMPS OF GILLETTE STADIUM! Both races start at the same time in the early evening and both have the most exciting finish ever inside the Gillette Stadium on the 50 yard line.
The 10K event is a 6.2-mile course covering the most scenic, tree-lined roads that Foxborough, Mass. has to offer. You'll find this to be the easiest and flattest 10K course around with only one medium hill to contend with. After your hard effort on the course, you will experience an exciting and most memorable finish.
Your BIG FINISH
The Finish at the 50 event is a must do. You will run through the huge inflated football helmet, onto the field to the cheers of thousands of fans and see yourself on the giant 48 feet wide HDTV screen. Your race finishes on the 50 yard line inside Gillette Stadium at Patriot Place! Stick around for a spectacular after-race Independence Day celebration at Patriot Place..
