Boston Mini-Marathon & Festival
The Boston Mini-Marathon and 5K events take place in Boston, Georgia. The races are certified and professionally timed. The course begins in downtown Boston and follows paved roads through local farmland into October country air.
The route is fully paved and includes refreshment stands approximately every 2.5 miles. Portable toilets are placed at miles 2, 5, 7, and 11. The course features rolling hills that are not extreme, with a final stretch that includes an uphill section. At the finish line each participant receives healthy eats and drinks intended to support recovery.
There are multiple event options:
- 13.1 miles Half Marathon
- 5K Race
- 5K Walk, timed this year with a cash prize for the winner
Registration opens on 2026-02-02 and closes on 2026-10-31. Registration fees listed are $50.00 for the half marathon and $35.00 for each 5K event. A festival of food, drinks and family-style southern hospitality takes place downtown after the races. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
