The Run.Live.Give Half Marathon is a 13.1 mile course with the Start & Finish Line Venue located at the New Conover City Park, Conover, NC. This Route was designed with local runners in mind. The RunTimeRaces Team has incorporated part of the courses from the FootChase 5K, The Conover School Run & Roll 5K, The Old Soldiers Reunion Run 5K, and the Night Crawl 5K to create the Run.Live.Give Half Marathon Course. This course has just enough flare to challenge you, and the right balance of straight stretches to help you work towards your next PR.  Every Finisher Gets a MEDAL!!!

Water and GU stops will be provided at various mile markers. Entertainment and cheering spectators will keep your motivation strong. Police and volunteers will be at strategic locations to manage traffic and assit you through the course. As a RunTimeRaces produced event, be assured this half marathon will be well organized and leave you with an Awesome Race Experience. 

We're offering a relay option available for teams of 2 people for those runners who might not be ready to go 13.1 solo.

We also have designed a Kid's Marathon Option for any runner 15 and under, which you may print the running journal, and then complete the last 1.1 mile on Race Day to receive your very own Run.Live.Give Half Marathon Finisher Medal!!!

We are offering Age Based Pricing in an effort to make the Run.Live.Give Half Marathon affordable for everyone individually and as a family.

Part of the RunTimeRaces philosophy is Community & Give Back. Even though we are a For-Profit Company, we have partnered with Hyatt's Angels (see below) to help those in time of need. $5 from each entry fee will be given to the Hyatt's Angels Foundation.

Hyatt's Angels Foundation (click here for link)

Hyatt Walker Fleegle was born sleeping at 35 weeks gestation and delivered via C-Section on May 15th, 2012. We were filled with happiness and anticipation of having our fifth and last child who was due on June 14th. Our lives were forever changed on May 14th after a checkup when I learned that our baby had passed away. Since my husband was out of town on a business trip, we had the C-section the following day, May 15th. We got to spend 12 hours with our son before having to say our final goodbyes. The doctors never determined the cause of Hyatt's death. It seemed that God had his own plan for our little Angel.

Losing Hyatt was the most devastating experience for us. It has changed our lives forever. Through this process we learned that we were not alone. We knew that we wanted to find a way to help other families dealing with the loss of a child. While comforting each other in the hospital, our vision for "Hyatt's Angels" came about.

We created "Hyatt's Angels" as a way to offer families suffering the loss of a child the support they need. Proceeds will be used to provide emotional and financial assistance.
A Moment In Our Arms, Forever In Our Hearts
