Race For Open Space 2026

Race for Open Space on Nantucket offers 5K, 10K, and 2-mile distances, allowing runners, walkers, and joggers to select a distance suitable for their day. The course follows a rolling route through the Middle Moors, an island landscape the event helps protect. The race directly supports the Nantucket Conservation Foundation, with proceeds funding its science, restoration, and stewardship of open spaces on the island. With over two dozen events held, it functions as a local tradition centered on crossing the land it benefits.
