TD Beach To Beacon 10K Road Race

The TD Beach to Beacon, a classic American summer road race now in its 19th year, was founded by Maine native and running legend Joan Benoit Samuelson, winner of the first Olympic women’s marathon, as a way to give back to her state and community by creating a major road race. The route follows the same coastal roads she trained on in picturesque Cape Elizabeth, beginning near the Crescent Beach entrance on Route 77, winding along tree-lined streets and past breathtaking ocean vistas, and ending in Fort Williams Park at the historic Portland Head Light, the most photographed lighthouse in the world.

This year My Place Teen Center has been selected as the charity partner of this perennial Maine tradition.
