Beverly Homecoming 5K Road Race
The Beverly Homecoming 5K Road Race takes place in Lynch Park in Beverly, MA on August 6, 2026. The event benefits the Greater Beverly YMCA and its programs, including swim safety, childcare, and youth development. Fundraising supports financial assistance for these community programs and includes tiered goals such as Garden City Supporter ($50), Oceanside Runner ($100), and Homecoming Hero ($250 or more).
The course is described as flat and passes through oceanside suburbs, with neighbors lining streets to cheer participants. Strollers are permitted on the course; dogs are not allowed at Lynch Park. Official timing is provided by Bay State Race Services. Race shirts are unisex crew necks, available first come first served and must be collected before the race begins.
Packet pick-up is available at the Sterling Center YMCA (254 Essex Street) the day before the race and at Lynch Park on race day; exact pick-up windows are provided by the organizer. The refund policy states all sales are final and no refunds will be offered. Registration includes categories for adults, children (13 and under), and a wheelchair division, with listed fees for each category.
Awards include overall 1st place medals for male and female, age group medals for top three in defined brackets, top three non-binary and wheelchair finishers, and special prizes for the first-place Beverly resident male and female. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
