NEW this year. Take your pick of two awesome Live Bands! Inside the Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom with a live cover band. Outside on the Sea Shell Stage – Get your dance moves ready for New England’s favorite ultimate Disco tribute band, Motor Booty Affair, who’ll be rocking the Sea Shell stage!

We know you’ll be hungry after you run, so all runners get treated to a smorgasbord of food, including lobstah rolls, clam chowdah, Stonyfield yogurt, Granola Bars, and vegetarian options. Oh, did we mention you also get two Smuttynose craft beers? The best part? It’s all included with the cost of your registration!
