Get ready for a delightful blend of fitness and deliciousness at the annual Blueberry Pie 5K, 1 Mile, and Pie Eating Contest on Saturday, June 27, 2026, in scenic Osterville, Massachusetts. This beloved community event, lauded as one of Cape Cod's best 5Ks, offers a challenging yet beautiful experience for runners of all abilities, all while supporting the wonderful mission of the Cape Cod Challenger Club. Participants can choose between a chip-timed 5K or a 1 Mile run, with dedicated kids' races and wheelchair divisions also available.

The course itself is a highlight, starting and finishing at the Cape Cod Cooperative School / Cape Cod Challenger Club. Runners will enjoy a picturesque journey through Osterville on an out-and-back route featuring shady, rolling hills. With two water stations strategically placed along the course, you'll stay hydrated as you soak in the charming scenery. Typical race day conditions in late June bring pleasant highs around 75°F and lows around 61°F, with only a 14% chance of precipitation, making for ideal running weather.

What truly sets this race apart is the festive, blueberry-themed atmosphere and the fantastic post-race celebration. Beyond the satisfaction of crossing the finish line, overall and age-group winners are awarded scrumptious blueberry pies from Centerville Pie Company, with 5K overall winners also snagging a coveted "CHAMP chain". The excitement culminates in a lively blueberry pie eating contest, open to various age divisions, promising both spectacle and delicious competition. With free entry for runners ages 7 and under or 80 and over, and a dog-friendly policy for leashed pets, this event is designed for the entire family to enjoy and create lasting memories.
