This year's inaugural High Bridge Mile running race will see runners tackle one full lap of the race course, battling up the 18% gradient of Mill Street as part of a challenging course that concludes with a Main St. finish just like the cyclists for a total of 1.3 miles with that little extra distance and elevation that make it a true High Bridge" mile!
