Move Free Whoopie Mile - Bar Harbor, Maine
The Move Free Whoopie Mile is a running event on July 3, 2027, held at the College of the Atlantic near the Whale Skull on Eden Street in Bar Harbor. The course uses a 0.25 mile loop on campus and the Eden Street sidewalk; roughly half the loop is pavement and half is gravel, with minimal elevation. The whoopie-eating transition zone is located near the campus main entrance by the Whale Skull. Parking is available on campus or within walking distance from town.
The rules require participants to eat one whoopie at the end of every 0.25 mile lap and to finish the entire whoopie before starting the next lap. Vomiting results in disqualification. Individual participants may compete in both the Solo Mile and Solo Endurance divisions in the same event.
Distances and divisions:
- Solo Mile: 4 laps (1 mile) and 4 whoopies, winner is the fastest time
- Relay: 4 laps (1 mile), 4 whoopies, teams of 2 to 4, winner is the fastest team time
- Solo Endurance: repeat 1 lap + 1 whoopie until only one person remains; each lap must be completed in under ten minutes
Prizes include the title of Move Free Whoopie Mile World Champion until the next event, and awards for top team names, costumes, and other categories. The event records and past fastest performances are maintained by the organizers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
