SPRINGFIELD, Vt. – With a new date, time, location, and even a brand-new race, you won’t want to miss the Springfield Dam Run, on Saturday, Sept. 6, from 4-7:30 p.m. This year, the Dam Run will take place entirely within the Army Corps of Engineers’ property at the Springfield Dam, on Reservoir Road in Springfield.
The evening will start with our classic kids’ half-mile fun run for ages 12 and under. This closed trail event is safe, exciting, and a great way to introduce younger children to running events, and it’s free.
Following the kids’ fun run is the Maniac Mile, a brand new one-mile sprint for individuals ages 10 and older. How fast can you go? Register for this race for a fee.

And finally, don’t miss our traditional Springfield Dam Run 5K. Run or walk with your family, friends, coworkers, and community. Featuring trails, slight elevation gain, fast downhills, and scenic views of Mt. Ascutney, you won’t want to miss this race. This event is open to individuals of all ages. The registration fee is discounted if you sign up for both the Maniac Mile and the Dam Run.
Before, during, and after the races, check out our Family Fun Zone with food trucks, axe throwing, and other activities for the whole family. Everyone is invited and encouraged to join us in this celebration.
