Welcome to 5K Sports Race Management

Welcome to 5K Sports Race Management, your source for Race Management Services.  As a runner and experienced Race Director, we operate a race event management business that services in Maine, New Hampshire & Massachusetts. We are involved with over 180 events in 2025.      

One of the special aspects of most races is that they usually benefit local charities and help others, and our race event management business allows us to participate in a sport that we love and help other Race Directors make their events successful.

5K Sports Race Management is a local company that is based upon the belief that all races deserve to be timed professionally for a reasonable price, which leaves more money for your charity, and that is what is important.

We have been timing & managing events in New England since 1995.  Road races, cross country, Nordic skiing and swimming events.  We have been in business for 30 years.

​​Our Mission Statement

Provide high quality Race Management Services at reasonable fees in order to support race organizers in donating more event funds to community charities.  We pride ourselves in quality not

quantity.

We manage and professionally time your road race

* Chip Timing race/result /Chip Timing fee's start at

$500.00

* Manual timing starts at $300.00 to $350.00 depending

   on travel & services provided to the race

* Computer timing with Time Machines and RunScore

* Finish line management

* Race course equipment

Great snack selection!  Thanks for all the pre-run snacks and the warm place to check in.  Really well marked course and marshaled course.  Great refreshments after the race as well.  Enjoyable course and race

Thankyou

Old Orchard Beach Half Marathon

Old Orchard, ME

Just wanted to say thanks again for having me this year.  What a fantastic race it was again, plus the conditions were perfect!  Although

I didn't finish where I'd hoped, it was great to see a spike in competition both the male and female divisions.  This is a fast and very well-organized race, so it deserves to have the level of competition.

Cape Elizabeth, ME

I am sorry to see you step down from your duties at the B2B.  Your contributions have been many and so important to the overall success of the race.  Your institutional knowledge of road race management has helped our team throughout the 26 years of the race to date.  It hurts to see you leave the B2B.  I hope it won't hurt any worse that the news you have shared about stepping down from the B2B because I am assuming you will stay involved with the Maine road running community where your services have been invaluable to the runners of our state

First, sad to see you leave the race after 26yrs but I / totally understand.  Just wanted to reach out to offer a huge THANK YOU and expression of appreciation for all you have done for the race over these years handling the course logistics with precision. Your involvement and expertise will never be forgotten as you have left a legacy that will be hard and almost impossible to duplicate and replace.  Really appreciate too, all the documents you sent along.  Very much appreciate the documents which will be helpful to whoever might take over this aspect of the race this year.  Again, we can't thank you enough for the impact you have made on this world-class race.

Good morning, Jim and Victoria,
Thank you again for the excellent timing service you provided yesterday, I know we were really testing your limits! I really appreciated your calm energy and your persistence throughout the whole race experience.

I am committed to improving the race for next year and will take all I experienced yesterday, as well as your advice for chip timing, into consideration as our team reflects on this year's Turkey Trot and lays the foundation for the race next year. Thank you also for the race results, I will go ahead and post the link on our Turkey Trot Website and in a post-race result email to our participants.
Have a great week,

Thank-you for a great race.  I understand that there were significant challenges having to change but, it seems to have gone well from my perspective.  I have no complaints!  It was well run- I liked

having crossing volunteers and those guiding us in the right direction. They were very encouraging as well!  The pre and post activities were also great, Thank-you for supporting running in Maine.  I appreciate your efforts!
