Join us for this year's 2nd Freedom Four Miler road race in East Longmeadow!

1st Place Male & Female: $1,250

Special Bonus Prize for the Runner who comes in 250th place to celebrate the 250th birthday of the U.S.A.
PRIZE BASKET AWARDED TO THE MOST PATRIOTIC PARTICIPANT!
Due to time constrictions in coordination with the East Longmeadow parade, there will be a 60 minute cut-off time. The course will have a sweeper to ensure all cones have been cleared and that there are no remaining runners on the route prior to the parade start.
Check-in will end precisely at 9:25AM (NO EXCEPTIONS). We cannot delay the start of the race due to the very tight timeline prior to the beginning of the parade. Please plan accordingly.
