Media reports on UMaine student winning Beach to Beacon

The Portland Press Herald, WABI (Channel 5 in Bangor) and News Center Maine reported that Sam Mills, a University of Maine junior who runs for the men’s track and field team, was the top Mainer in the TD Beach to Beacon 10K Road Race, which was held at Cape Elizabeth on Aug. 6, for the first time since 2019. “It means so much to me because it’s been such a long journey and the path to get here is so deeply entwined with the Maine running community. Standing on that start line, there’s the elite (runners), of course, ahead of us, but everyone I’m standing next to feels like my teammate,” Mills told the Portland Press Herald. Yahoo! News and CentralMaine.com shared the Portland Press Herald report.
