Newport Winter 10k
The Newport Winter 10k is the second annual running of a coastal 10 km event held on December 6, 2026. The course starts and finishes at Brenton Point State Park and runs clockwise around Ocean Drive. The route is mostly flat along the coast with a few rolling hills between miles 3 and 5, and offers expansive ocean views and rugged coastline.
Two aid stations are located at miles 1.9 and 3.8. There is no gear bag drop at the race start; race day parking is adjacent to Brenton Point. Strollers are allowed if the child is registered and a guardian signs the waiver.
Packet pick-up is available the day before at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center and on race morning at Brenton Point State Park. All finishers receive a medal, a race-branded winter beanie, a race bib, and timed results. The top three male and female overall finishers receive awards; there are no age group awards in the event’s first year.
A portion of race proceeds supports the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center. The event collects nonperishable food donations at registration and on race morning; the center will distribute over 1,900,000 meals this year. Full refunds and deferrals are allowed up to 30 days before the event, and registration transfers are not permitted. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
