MECHANIC FALLS — Pathways Inc. will host the 31st annual Pottle Hill Road Race on Saturday, June 23, starting from Town Square.

Known over the years for having one of the most challenging 10K races in New England, the event starts with a tamer one-mile Fun Run/Walk at 8:30 a.m., followed by the start of the 5K at 9 a.m., and the 10K at 9:05 a.m. The course is hilly, scenic and mostly rural, well marked, wheel measured, with split time and water stations along the way.

Refreshments will be available after the race. The registration fee is $19 and registration for the Fun Run is $5. Prizes will be awarded, including cash prizes for top male and female 10K winners.
