About the Event

🎃 Pumpkinman Running Festival

20th Anniversary — September 13, 2026 | Spring Hill, South Berwick, Maine

From family fun to finish line...this is where stories are born.

Five race distances. One unforgettable venue. A legendary Harvest Brunch. A community that will cheer for you whether you're first across the line or crossing it for the very first time.

Not every runner wants a massive city race with corrals, crowds, and finisher ponchos.

If you're looking for something smaller...
Something more personal...
Something that feels like it was made for you...

Welcome to Pumpkinman.

Run the beautiful rolling back roads of Southern Maine alongside a boutique field of athletes who actually cheer for each other. No pacers. No chaos. Just incredible scenery, an unforgettable finish line, and the Harvest Brunch everyone talks about long after race day.
