Mid Winter 10 Mile Classic

Race Day and Virtual Option

The 2027 Mid-Winter 10 Mile Classic will be race #1 for the 2027 Maine Track Club Grand Prix series. Points will be awarded based on performance at each MTC race, and prizes and bragging rights will be given out at the end of the year at the Annual Banquet.

The gun will fire on Sunday, February 7th, 2027 at 9:45 a.m. The start and finish lines are at Cape Elizabeth High School at 345 Ocean House Rd.

We will also have a virtual racing option for the week leading up to the race, where you can run 10 outdoor miles at any time from February 1st through February 7th, 2026. You must report your run by 11:59pm on February 7th.

You may run both the virtual and in person options for the race, but you may not count the in person race as your virtual result. They must be run separately. You will only get credit for one event (in person or virtual) for the Maine Track Club Grand Prix.
