Who we are: a welcoming, encouraging and supportive group of crazy people who run the roads and trails of way Downeast Maine, the Canadian Borderlands, and beyond. We welcome everyone, from beginners to old-timers and from tortoises to hares. We run distances ranging from 1 mile to 50 miles and on anything from smooth tar to rugged single track. If it's hot: we run, if it rains: we run, if it's snowy: we run in snowshoes, if icy: in spikes. We just run, mostly for fun, but some of us are also competitive! Bold Coast Runners is an affiliate member of the RRCA and soon USAT. Through the RRCA, we are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.

Club Runs: most Sundays at 8:00 am somewhere in coastal Washington County or just over the border in Hancock County or Charlotte County, Canada (location and time set by group leader - note that you don't have to be a club member to join us in any of these activities, just show up at the appointed time and place)
