Online registration or the 2025 Grenon’s Newport Night Run, a Race for Education, is now closed. Onsite registration is available prior to the race.

The tenth annual event will be held on Saturday, April 5th at 7:30 PM.

Military Discount

The Newport Night Run extends its thanks to those serving our country. We invite active, reserve members and veterans of all military branches to email us to receive a discounted registration.

Bib Pick-Up

Registered participants will receive a race bib and timing chip at registration on race night in the Rogers High School cafeteria from 5:30 PM – 7:15 PM  (map)

Runners can pick up their bib and timing chip on race night but it is strongly recommended that runners arrive early to park and alleviate race night delays.

Donate Your Shirt

You are now able to opt out of receiving your event t-shirt when registering. We will then in turn donate the cost of producing that shirt to the Newport Public Education Foundation, and announce the donation amount from this initiative following the event.

Eventbrite Credits

Our registration platform has phased out their credit program. Any credits issued will be available for use up to their expiration. After the credit expires, we regret that we cannot honor the credit for future events.

Extreme Weather Policy

Our events are held rain or shine. However, there is always the potential for extreme or severe weather conditions. Race organizers will do as much as we can to ensure the experience is as safe as possible. In the event of severe weather, the race may be delayed as race officials consult public safety officers. If there is more than a short delay, if conditions persist, or the forecast calls for extreme weather, race officials reserve the right to alter or cancel the race. We do not schedule “rain dates”. Any decision to cancel an event is done as an absolute last resort and is made collectively with local risk management, police, fire & rescue, and medical personnel as appropriate. In such situations, there will be NO REFUNDS as registrants accept any such risk of their entry free when signing up.

Please check the website, our Facebook page, and your email before the race for any changes or cancellations.
