Due to the pandemic and the continued capacity restriction on outdoor events of 100 people in the state of Maine, we are once again forced to postpone the Portland 10 Miler to September 12, 2021. We share in your disappointment and frustration in another postponement as we believe our event is just outside the window of a possible return of safe, in-person events — but an event of this size in just eight weeks is not possible under the current guidelines and outlook.

However, we are truly optimistic that this summer and fall will finally mark a return to safe, in-person events and that we will be able to responsibly host all deferred 2020 registrants of the Portland 10 Miler and New England 10 Miler Series.

All registrants will be automatically rolled into the fall race, which is scheduled for Sunday, September 12, 2021 pending permit approval. There is no further action needed on your part.

While we are still not able to offer refunds, we have added a race credit option to our existing deferral and transfer policies for your ticket that can be applicable to any 2021 or 2022 Gray Matter Marketing event. For more information on event credits, visit HERE.

As always, the safety and health of our runners, volunteers and staff is our top priority. We’re thankful for each and every one of our participants and your support and understanding as we work towards sunnier days on the road together again.
