Event Overview

The Swanzey Gate to Gate 5-K "ish" is a scenic athletic event held in Swanzey, New Hampshire. The main course takes participants exactly one time around Swanzey Lake. The event is termed "5-K ish" as the route emphasizes lakeside views rather than a precise 5-kilometer measurement, resulting in a distance of approximately 2.6 miles.

Participants have the option to complete the course as either a run or a walk. In addition to the main loop, there is a dedicated event for children. The available distances include:

2.6 Mile Run/Walk
Kids Fun Run (for children under 12)

Registration for the event opens in early March. Tiered pricing is available for adults and youth, with rates increasing as the event date approaches. Participants who register by mid-May are guaranteed an event shirt. The Kids Fun Run is free of charge, though registration is still required for all young participants.

All proceeds from the event support the Swanzey Lake Summer Camp fundraiser. These funds are used to provide scholarships and gear for local children.
