About the Apple Harvest Run 2026
The course starts outside Page School on a fall morning and splits into two distances, one a longer out-and-back through the area around West Newbury and one a shorter loop. The surroundings are quiet and residential, with enough tree cover that the foliage is worth looking at. The race has been around long enough to feel like a neighborhood fixture rather than a managed event.
After the main races finish, the school grounds fill out with food from local restaurants, a beer tent from a local brewery, and a massage station. There are also bounce houses and inflatables, so families tend to stick around. Bringing your own chair or blanket is encouraged if you plan to stay.

The Apple Harvest Run 2026 has been held every year since at least 2020. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
