Millside Fitness Bun Run 5k
The Millside Fitness Bun Run is a community 5K race held in Dexter, Maine on August 8, 2026. The course is a 5K loop that combines hills, trails and road sections, and it passes through woods and the streets of Dexter with both start and finish located in downtown.
The event allows running or walking; strollers and leashed pets are permitted. The race is professionally timed. New for the year are custom bibs. All finishers receive a medal. Prizes are awarded to the top three male and top three female finishers, and there are age group awards.
Packet pickup and the race start take place in front of Millside Fitness at 26 Main Street, with bib pickup times to be announced. There is no same-day registration for 2026. All registrations completed by July 24 are guaranteed a t-shirt in the chosen size; later registrations receive shirts as available.
The registration fee is listed as $35 and is scheduled to increase to $40 on June 9 and to $45 on July 10. Proceeds from the event will support the Heart of Maine Resource Center, a nonprofit working to connect community members with food, housing, heating, education and other local resources. The organization is completing renovations of the Bert Call Studio to house its programs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
