SOLD OUT IN 2025. Enjoy happy hour running along the river in the capital region with a series of race options. Kick off the summer weekend early with the popular Thursday evening 5K in Hartford, the first of three Riverfront races.
After the 3.1 mile race, cool off with an ice cold craft brew from New England Brewing Company (21+ w/ID only) at the Mortensen Riverfront Plaza. Each race participant will receive a custom commemorative 24 oz Specialized water bottle and enjoy a mini mac attack from our friends at Bear’s Smokehouse BBQ.
Riverfront Summer Series: A trio of varying race distances on Thursday evenings, the multi-race series welcomes moving with friends and celebrating summer evenings. Comprised of Hartford’s Riverfront 5K in June, the redesigned Riverfront 4 Mile on a different Hartford course in July and the Riverfront 5 Mile in East Hartford in August. Series finishers will don a lightweight custom long sleeve tee to boast their accomplishment. DETAILS
