Salty's 5K & 10K Double Nubble

Salty Endurance Events on May 3rd, 2026 is hosting a 5K and 10K road race in the beautiful seaside town of York, ME. This event is more than just a race—it is a celebration of health and a community staple. 

Our mission is to promote healthy living and build stronger communities through accessible and inclusive running events, while supporting local charities and fostering a spirit of participation and camaraderie. Your participation can make a significant impact on local charitable organizations in the Seacoast Region. All the race proceeds in 2026 will go to York Education Foundation.

Salty Endurance Events has made a growing and meaningful impact on both the endurance industry and the athletes it serves. What sets Salty apart is not just the races themselves, but the heart, purpose, and accessibility behind them.

As a nonprofit, Salty Endurance Events channels its energy into strengthening local programs, building healthier communities, and creating opportunities for people to challenge themselves. But beyond its charitable mission, Salty has helped shape the endurance landscape by proving that races don’t have to be exclusive, intimidating, or centered only around elite athletes—they can be welcoming, supportive, and intentionally inclusive.

Salty Endurance Events embraces athletes from all backgrounds, fitness levels, ages, and identities. Whether someone is running their first-ever 5K, pushing for a PR, or simply looking for a positive environment to try something new, they will find a place at Salty Endurance Events. The organization operates with the belief that endurance sports become stronger when more people feel empowered to participate—not just those who look or train a certain way.

Through its races, outreach, and values, Salty Endurance Events continues to expand what endurance sports can look like—more inclusive, more community-driven, and more accessible to all.
