A Pro Distance Running Team for Maine

Building a high-performance home for Maine’s top distance runners.

A grassroots project backed by small local businesses & individual support.

Redefining Maine Distance Running

Maine has produced many world-class runners - but it’s never had a true home for professional development after college.

The Maine Distance Project was built to change that.

We support emerging pros with structure, coaching, and financial backing - so they can keep chasing big goals without leaving home.
