About the Finale 5K
The course runs through downtown Bangor, crossing railroad tracks in a couple of spots, once on each side of a local brewery. The route is not closed to traffic, so runners share the road. A train has come through during the race before, and the organizers are upfront about that possibility, worth keeping in mind on race morning.
Bib pickup and race-day registration both happen at a downtown address on State Street before the start. Cash or check is required for race-day registration. The race begins near the new bus station, and awards go to overall and age-group winners, with a nonbinary category available.
