Registered participants will receive their race bib with timing chip and athlete shirt at registration. Onsite registration is available all three days.

All participants must show a photo ID at pick-up. Participants may pick-up for friends and family, but must provide a copy of the ID or a photo of the ID on their phone for verification.

Please note: Race participants picking up their bibs on Sunday may not receive their shirts until after the race due to race morning time constraints.

The Newport 10 Miler is one of the area’s most popular races due in part to its beautiful waterfront scenery. There are limited access roads to and through Newport and Fort Adams State Park. Given the nature of the location, traffic and wait times while arriving and leaving should be anticipated. We are again working to expedite parking and minimize delays. You can do your part to alleviate crowds by carpooling, ARRIVING EARLY, and even consider cycling into the Fort. Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.

Parking

Parking is available at Fort Adams. Please allow yourself ample time on race morning to park and walk to the starting area, approximately half a mile from the designated parking areas. Please follow signs and the directions of the race volunteers on where to park.

Parking spots will fill up on a first-come-first-park basis with the spots closest to the starting area filling up first.

Skip the Traffic – Ride in, Ride Out

Parking at Rogers High School and riding the 2.0 miles in on your bike is a great way to stretch out those legs and avoid the pre and post-race vehicle traffic. Join the number of participants who park off site and bike in to Fort Adams. Our friends at BikeNewport will be providing bike racks onsite, and detailed instructions on Getting to The Event.

Gear Bag Drop

Athletes wishing to drop off gear will be able to do so near bib pick-up inside Fort Adams beginning at 6:00 AM on race morning. A designated drop off location will be set up and athletes will use the number they are given during registration to identify their gear bag. Athletes will need their own bag as they will not be provided by the event.
