The Race Course
Half - Marathon Route
5 K Route
Walkers
Walkers are encouraged to participate in either the half-marathon or 5K distance. We welcome competitive walkers and offer chip-timing for those who want to meet personal pace times. We welcome recreational walkers who will have the opportunity to enjoy the live music on the course and the different scenic areas at a more recreational pace. Competitive walking awards are not provided but every walker completing the half-marathon distance will receive a professionally designed finisher’s medal. If there is enough interest in a competitive walking award category we will consider it for next year. In addition to the finisher’s medal, walkers can look forward to receiving a race t-shirt, raffle prizes, goodie bags, food and beverages. Runners and walkers will start at the same time, although walkers will start to the rear of the starting line-up for an orderly and safe race start. We’re looking forward to seeing you on the course.
