Journey Home Road Race 2026

The Journey Home Road Race brings together runners, walkers, and ruck participants in Devens, Massachusetts, annually around Veterans Day weekend in November. It provides 5K and 10K distances, with the event focused on honoring U.S. veterans and first responders, not on attracting an elite-only field. The race begins and concludes near 84 Antietam Street. Packet pickup on race morning is conveniently located near parking and the start-finish area. Net proceeds benefit Veteran Pathways of New England, a wellness-focused veterans community center. The event also has connections to Clear Path for Veterans New England in Marlborough. Following the run and walk, participants convene for a post-race gathering hosted by Columbia Tavern and Yuengling. Awards are presented to the top three overall finishers in each division.
