The Mendon Mile presented by Saucony
The Mendon Mile is a series of one mile road races held on July 31, 2026 at Hopkins Point Lodge in Mendon Ponds Park, Mendon, NY. Races are organized in heats that group runners by projected finish time so competitors of similar pace race together. All genders compete together within each heat.
The event uses professional RFID timing and offers awards to top finishers in each heat. A post race party takes place next to the finish line. Saucony will have shoe demos at the event site and will provide a discount voucher valid at Fleet Feet Rochester and Fleet Feet Buffalo. Race shirts are available for purchase through July 5.
Entry fee for each mile heat is $15. Registration opens on February 18 and closes on June 30 for the listed heats. The format includes multiple heats, including waves for projected finish times over thirteen minutes, between 11:01 and 13:00, 9:01 and 11:00, 7:00 and 9:00, and sub seven minutes, allowing runners to choose an appropriate projected time group.
