Boston Mini-Marathon & Festival 2026

The Boston Mini-Marathon & Festival begins at 118 E Jefferson Street in downtown Boston, Georgia, leading runners from the town center onto paved country roads. The event includes a half marathon, a timed 5K race, and a 5K walk, suitable for those seeking a certified time or a shorter community run in the October air. The course features rolling terrain with a final uphill section near the finish. Aid stations are located every 2.5 miles, with porta-potties at miles 2, 5, 7, and 11. Post-race, participants receive recovery refreshments before the event transitions into a downtown festival offering food, drinks, and a Southern atmosphere.
