Opioid Prevention 1 Mile Run/Walk/Wheel is a running race on October 24, 2026 in Bangor, ME.
Join us at the Bangor Waterfront for the Opioid Prevention 1-Mile Run, Walk & Wheel—an inclusive community fundraiser focused on raising awareness, supporting prevention efforts, and bringing people together in response to the impact of the opioid crisis.
This event is being organized and presented by Timberwolves Native American Church. Runners, walkers, wheelchair participants, families, and community members of all experience levels are welcome to participate. Whether you complete the mile competitively or at your own pace, your participation helps show support for a healthier and stronger community.
Registration is offered by donation. Donations are welcomed and appreciated, but they are not required to participate. Every contribution helps support the event’s fundraising efforts and its goal of making a positive difference in the community.
The course follows the scenic Bangor Waterfront Trail along the Penobscot River. Participants will begin near Maine Savings Amphitheater, travel to the designated turnaround point, and return to the Start/Finish area. Water will be provided, and participants will also have the opportunity to win prizes.
Come move with purpose, connect with the community, and help raise awareness and funds for opioid prevention.
