On October 18, 2026, the EPFD Freaky 5K takes place in Rumford, Rhode Island at 30 N Broadway. Despite its name, the event features a 1-mile run rather than a full 5K distance. The race starts at 10:00 AM and costs between $30 and $35 to enter. This shorter format makes it accessible for runners looking for a quick, low-pressure outing or those using it as a warm-up before tackling longer distances. If you're traveling to the Rumford area for this October race, you'll want lodging close to downtown Broadway for an easy morning commute to the start.
