For 50 years, Cohasset Road Race by the Sea, presented by Cohasset Rotary Club, has been a spring running tradition. Our scenic yet challenging course begins and ends beside the quintessential Cohasset Town Common. The route includes the Atlantic coastline with views of both Boston and Minot Lighthouses. Minot will cheer you with its famous blinks 1-4-3 ("I love you").

This race is Cohasset Rotary Club’s signature fundraiser. Through net proceeds and the generosity of our sponsors, we continue to “raise money to give it away” - to local charities - and global initiatives done in conjunction with Rotary International.

Race weekend is our favorite weekend of the year!

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the legendary run. We are so pleased to partner with Safe Harbor Cohasset Coalition, who will orchestrate the walk portion of the event. If you're not a runner, we invite you to register for the walk, beginning at 10 a.m., and support the important work of the Coalition.

Check out the many volunteer opportunities! We'd love to see you!

Thank you for your support of Cohasset Rotary Club.

We raise money to give it away.

We hope to see old and new friends on Race Day 2026!

We are enormously grateful for each and every registration.

Please note that we do not issue refunds for Cohasset Road Race by the Sea.

If you are unable to participate your registration fee will be a donation to the

Cohasset Rotary Club and the charities we support.
