From the Organizer
Join us for the most scenic race on the Seacoast! The course is a beautiful run or walk through historic Newington Village streets, with water views, farmland, and some challenging hills. In addition to our original 5 miler, we now offer an option to run or walk a 5K course. With two great races and a Kids Fun Run, we have something to offer everyone! The Fox Point Sunset Road Race is the primary fundraiser for the Newington School Supporters. Every year, the funds raised from your participation and our sponsors directly benefit the students of the Newington Public School.
