Boston Waterfront 5K

The Boston Waterfront 5K returns September 12 with a completely new course through the Seaport. You'll still start and finish at Leader Bank Pavilion, but this year's route gives you a fresh look at one of the most scenic stretches of waterfront in the city.

New views, same celebration. Best of all, your participation supports The McCourt Foundation's mission to cure neurological diseases and empower communities to build a healthier world.

The Boston Waterfront 5K returns for another morning along the harbor, starting and finishing at Leader Bank Pavilion, one of the most iconic waterfront venues in the city. Thousands of runners and walkers moving with purpose. And a finish line that opens right into the Pavilion for one of the best post-race celebrations in Boston.

This year brings a new route, with the same start and finish you know, and a refreshed waterfront experience in between.

Every entry supports The McCourt Foundation's mission to cure neurological diseases and empower communities to build a healthier world.

A moment we’ll never forget. 💙

One year after suffering a stroke at the 2024 Boston Waterfront 5K, Boston Police Officer Jack Hynes returned to walk the final 100 yards, surrounded by his family, friends, and an incredible Team Jack crew.
