HOOMPA Nickel 5 Miler Road Race
The HOOMPA Nickel 5 Mile Road Race, held in Nahant, Massachusetts, is a scenic coastal event featuring a 5-mile run, a 5-mile walk, and a 1-mile kids fun run, all dedicated in memory of Bobbie-Jo Blair. The course offers a mix of gentle uphills and downhills along Nahant’s coastline, including challenging hills like the "HOOMPA Hill" at mile two and a final uphill on Ocean Street before a downhill finish at the historic Nahant Life Saving Station. Participants registering before August 10 receive a commemorative T-shirt.
The race concludes with an awards ceremony and post-race party at the American Legion, supporting local causes and Blair’s family fund. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
