Runners and walkers have traveled across the US for this unique event! This stretch of the Pennsylvania Turnpike was bypassed in 1968, leaving 2 tunnels and miles of road untouched by traffic for nearly 50 years. At this original old turnpike half marathon, you’ll experience 5 miles of your race underground in the old tunnels and miles surrounded by beautiful fall foliage! We also have a One Tunnel Four Miler option for those wanting to experience the tunnels with a shorter distance. This is a two-day event where each day of racing will be limited to 500 runners to prevent crowding the course. Save the date for Saturday, October 21 and Sunday, October 22, 2023 in Waterfall, PA.
A headlamp or flashlight is required for the End of the Road Half Marathon and One Tunnel Four Miler as there are no lights in the tunnels you will run through!
