Half Marathon Event Details
The Half Marathon course at Yankee Springs uses trails not used by a lot of the other Yankee Springs events. This is a fun opportunity to check out some unique areas of Yankee, and also challenge yourself on this winter trail course. The course is well marked with hanging tape confidence markers every .1 miles and turn signs at every single turn on the course. 5+ aid stations keep athletes prepared for the miles ahead with water/Gatorade and gels. Runners will have the choice to cross the frigid water about .5 mile from the finish or run a bonus .25 miles and avoid the water! Either way this is an epic way to kick off your season of racing!
