What: Have you been to Roosevelt Campobello International Park? Are you running the Coastal Challenge on August 10th? Come explore the 10k and 25k courses with us! Start and finish will be at RCIP welcome center. This is the location for the start and finish of Campobello Coastal challenge. Choices can be the 10K course, or shorter around Roosevelts Campus; and/or 25K Coastal Challenge Course. Paul plans to lead a run of a combination of the 10K course and carriage trails, omitting the trails in the Provincial Park. At last check a portion of the trail, at the start had well over 100 downed trees. Another portion of the 25K in RCIP is missing staging for the wetlands so inevitably we'll explore what we can. Eric will semi guide a route on the singletrack trail, herring Cove Beach, and dirt roads, around 1hr-1:30mins.

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)
