Event Description
FITNESS And FUN !!! Where will you be when the sky goes dark?
Come join us for a once-in-a-lifetime unique experience on April 8, 2024 in Coos County. A total Solar Eclipse will darken New Hampshire's skies in one of nature's most awe-inspiring shows. For 3 minutes and 15 seconds, skies will dim, temperatures will drop, and the country will pause to watch as the Moon passes over the light of the Sun, completely blocking its light.
This event will be a massive opportunity for New Hampshire’s tourism industry. Northern New Hampshire will be in the eclipse’s Path of Totality, which offers viewers the most dramatic view of the eclipse. An influx of visitors will travel to the state in the hopes of getting this once-in-a-lifetime view of the sky. The last time New Hampshire was in the direct path of a Solar Eclipse was in 1959, and the next won’t be until 2079.
The highly-anticipated Solar Eclipse will be directly overhead at 3:26 pm and will last for an astounding 3 minutes and 15 seconds. We are thrilled to offer the Coos County BPN Solar Eclipse 5K.
