6 at the Springs

6 at the Springs 6 hr. 4 mile loop on Waterbrook House Trail in Poland, ME. June 20th 2026. Thank you for everyone who has made the last 2 years so succesful!! One loop. Two loops.

Along the sleepy Route 26 in Western Maine, there lies a place that is world renowned for its magical healing waters. Over the course of 200 years, a small village has grown into a thriving community where the people are just as magical as the water under their feet. This is the town of Poland, Maine. Trail Legs Run Coach and Poland Parks & Rec. invite you to 6 at the Springs, a celebration of Pol

and’s unique small businesses and trails through a running event. Competitors will tour the historically registered rail trail from the mouth of Lower Range Pond to a turnaround in Mechanic Falls before returning to the start line. This flat 4 mile loop will excite the speedster and the casual hiker alike as it passes multiple watersheds and possibly the most scenic beaver pond ever created along a wide, hard-packed trail. As a timed event we will give recognition for all mileage earned. Ten loops. The choice is yours and we hope you come ready to challenge yourself! This course is friendly for both the experienced and new runner/walker of all ages. And when you’re done, enjoy all the amazing products that our local businesses and sponsors offer. Be sure to join us this June to see our amazing businesses and beautiful trail systems!

With barely a week to go, we would like to do a couple segments on what to expect in our race. We want to break this down for the newish runners, casual or regular runners working on a personal best, and those looking to be a little more competitive.

Let’s start with newer trail runners. We were new to trails and these races once too. It’s a little bit intimidating, confusing, and maybe you feel like you don’t belong. We can’t tell you not to feel that way. We can provide a course that’s inviting, have you run with everybody for the entirety of your event, and make sure we cover everything you need (except for clothes and shoes, of course). It’s always inspiring to see people change over 6 hours!

That’s it. Show up, trust yourself, your RD’s, and your fellow runners. We promise you’ll find a side of yourself you didn’t know existed.

If there’s one worthy rival to John’s legendary race‑day smash burgers, it’s Mel's Hilltop Restaurant. This cozy, crowd‑favorite spot sits right on the Poland Spring Resort property, but you don’t need to be a resort guest to enjoy it!! Their page is packed with delicious specials (including $5 smash burgers every Monday) and a fun lineup of events that keep the community coming back for more. Check them out and give ‘em a big “thank you” for their support!! 🥳
