This will be the 8th running of the Half Marathon (thanks to COVID, we didn't have the half marathon in 2020) and has been designated as the 2023 RRCA State Championship Half Marathon Race! The Summit2Summit Half Marathon takes you on both Hot Springs Mountain/North Mountain Summit AND West Mountain Summit! And the course is run on paved roads! USATF/RRTC Certification #AR18027WJT
We have a cap of 550 runners for the November 11, 2023 race.
You must be 13 years old to compete without an accompanying participating adult.
Registrations are non-refundable and cannot be carried forward to the next year; however, you will be able to transfer to another event. Transfer must be done by November 3rd, if the races are not sold out!
All participants will receive a Long Sleeve 1/4 Zip Technical Shirt and an awesome Finisher's medal. Once we have completed the design, we will post a graphic here.
