Pine Line Run 2027 Late July 2027
On May 22, 2027, Nick Bennett will attempt the Pine Line Run, a 138-mile Fastest Known Time effort across the state of Maine.
The route begins at the Quebec border and finishes on the Maine coast, covering approximately 138 miles from one side of the state to the other. Nick will be attempting to break the current Fastest Known Time for the route, which is 1d 9h 40m 57s .
While the FKT is an important part of the challenge, the main purpose of the Pine Line Run is to raise money and awareness for House in the Woods.
House in the Woods provides outdoor and nature-based experiences for veterans, active-duty military members, and their families. Through the Pine Line Run, Nick hopes to use the challenge as a way to bring more attention to the organization, share its mission with a larger audience, and raise funds to support the work it continues to do.
THE MISSION:
Leading up to the attempt, Nick will be sharing the training process, preparation, route planning, fundraising progress, and information about House in the Woods. Updates will also be shared throughout the event so supporters can follow the attempt as it happens.
FUNDRAISING:
All money raised through the Pine Line Run will go directly to House in the Woods.
Supporters will be encouraged to donate directly to House in the Woods in connection with the Pine Line Run. Fundraising updates will be shared throughout the months leading up to the event.
