2026 Granby Road Race is a running race on May 1, 2027 in Granby, CT, with entry fees from $40 to $50.
From the Organizer
The annual Granby Road Race will take place on Saturday, May 1, 2027. One of Connecticut’s oldest and most historic road races, the 10K features a rolling, scenic course that winds along local roads and through the beautiful McLean Game Refuge. A 5K option is also available, with a course that runs partly on the road and partly through Salmon Brook Park.
Both races start just south of Granby Middle School on Route 10. The 5K heads south on Route 10 and enters Salmon Brook Park, where runners complete a loop before returning to Route 10 and heading north back to Granby Middle School.
The 10K continues south on the west side of Route 10 to Canton Road, where runners turn right and enter the McLean Game Refuge. After exiting the refuge, runners return to the west side of Route 10, continue north, and turn left into the semi-circle driveway in front of Granby Memorial High School, finishing at the high school.
Please note that the course will close at 10:00 AM. We encourage all participants to select the race option that best suits their pace.
Proceeds from the race benefit the YMCA’s Annual Campaign, which helps ensure that individuals and families can participate in YMCA programs and services regardless of their ability to pay.
