The Blueberry Pie 5K and the exciting Challenger 1 Mile Run is designed for people of all abilities to participate and enjoy the thrill of crossing the finish line. The course starts and finishes at the Cape Cod Cooperative School / Cape Cod Challenger Club at 418 Bumps River Road and takes runners through a beautiful rolling course through Osterville. This race is chip timed on every runner's racing bib. The race course is USA Track & Field officially measured but not officially certified; unfortunately, no world records can be set on our course.
Blueberry Pies from Centerville Pie Company are the prizes for both Overall and Category winners. Additional catagories this year are "age-graded winner" and "fastest team or family". We also give prizes to every 25th finisher up until the 500th finisher. This race gives you the best chance to win a prize and have a great time supporting a really great cause.
