About this race
Join us at the Keene Dillant-Hopkins Airport for the 4th Annual Keene Airport 5K at 9:00 am to benefit The Keene Senior Center.
The race begins at the Airport Terminal and continues on a tree-lined flat, fast, paved road that passes through scenic wildlife filled wetlands. This course offers more protection from the wind, great for PRs. The race is also walker- and stroller-friendly. No dogs, please.
Prizes will be awarded to the fastest male and female. There will also be prizes for each age group, starting with under 20 to 90+. Beginning at 65, there will be a prize for every 5 years. Hence 60 to 64, 65 to 69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, and 90+. There will also be random prizes just for participants including a free helicopter ride and a free flying lesson. You must be present to win!
