The classic Freedom Old Home Week (FOHW) 5K is back in 2023 with an improved vibe, increased excitement, and -- due to the fantastic sponsorship support from businesses and individuals in Freedom and beyond -- a low price of $20 per person. Plus registrants will receive a Food Truck voucher that is good for up to $10.
COURSE:
The registered course starts in front of the Freedom Elementary School, and then turns left onto Village Road that has a nice, rolling hill. For those who hate hills -- not to worry. This is the only part of that race that we are able to identify as a hill -- and just barely! Ha! In no time at all, runners/walkers will turn left onto Freedom Point Road where we begin the dirt/gravel portion of the course. This is a quaint country road that brings about a feeling of peace, weaving a bit as it meets up with Round Pond Road. The last big turn of the course is a left onto Loon Lake Road which leads participants back to the Freedom Elementary School -- the course's finish! A course map is located at the bottom of the page.
COST:
Pre-Registration -- Through August 2, 2024 at 6 PM -- Thanks to generous sponsors of FOHW 2023, the registration fee for the Freedom 5K is just $20 which includes one the benefit of a voucher for use at the Food Truck (the token's value is for anything up to $10). On Race Day -- Anyone can participate without having pre-registered, but the cost on Race Day is $25 -- and it comes with the Food Truck voucher, too.
Kids 10 and under participating with a registered adult are welcome to participate at no cost! Leashed dogs will check in on Race Day ($2) and receive a bandana and a treat!
TIMING:
This will be timed "In-House" by volunteers. Participants will learn more on Race Day. A big *THANK YOU* to the White Mountain Milers for the use of its Timer.

Each registrant will read a waiver (and, to participate, must click YES). We'll have plenty of extra waiver forms at the registration table for those who register on race day.
