The Dandelion Dash and Mushroom Mile takes place on May 3, 2026, in Hadley, Massachusetts, at 193 Bay Road. This running event offers two distance options: a 1-mile race and a 5K. The event starts at 9:45 AM, giving you time for a pre-race routine without an extremely early wake-up. Entry fees range from $35 to $45 depending on your chosen distance and registration timing.
