Join, or die.
On April 18, 1775, Paul Revere set a route from the shores of Charlestown to the Hancock-Clarke House in Lexington that would change the course of history.
In 2026, will you run it?
Historically accurate
The course is the exact route of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. Specifically, it is the successful portion of the ride. It starts in Charlestown where he borrowed a horse, and winds its way to the Hancock-Clarke House in Lexington where he warned Sam Adams and John Hancock that the Regulars were on their way.
Nothing was added or cut — his ride was exactly a half marathon.
The Updates are coming
Currently the plan is for this to be an unofficial event. Like Revere’s ride, it will be self-supported and unsanctioned.
That said, we are looking at getting race shirts made and potentially organizing transportation to the start line. Because this has never happened before, it’s difficult to gauge interest. Please fill out this form to help us get a better idea of what to plan for.
