About 46th Annual Freezer 5 Mile Road Race

The Freezer 5 Mile Road Race Start your year the right way at one of Central Massachusetts' most enduring running traditions. The Freezer 5 Mile Road Race has welcomed runners to Sterling every New Year's Day for more than four decades, combining small-town charm, competitive racing, and a festive community atmosphere that keeps participants coming back year after year.
