About the race
The Newport Winter 10k is a seasonal road race held on December 6, 2026, that uses a scenic loop of Ocean Drive with start and finish at Brenton Point State Park. The course runs clockwise around Newport’s coastline and features expansive ocean views and rugged shoreline scenery. The route is mostly flat along the coast with a few rolling hills between miles 3 and 5. Two aid stations are placed at approximately miles 1.9 and 3.8.
Race day parking and drop offs are available at Brenton Point State Park. There is no gear bag drop at the race start. Race entries include timed results, a race bib, a finisher’s medal, a race branded long sleeve shirt, and a winter beanie. Awards are given to the top three overall male and female finishers; there are no age group awards in year one.
Strollers are allowed if the child is registered and a guardian signs the waiver. A portion of race proceeds supports the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center.
The event also runs a food drive accepting nonperishable donations for the Center. Full refunds and deferrals are allowed up to 30 days before the event; transfers of registrations are not permitted. The event is held rain or shine, with cancellation only for extreme conditions and no refunds in that case. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
