Greensboro Half Marathon
The Greensboro Half Marathon is a road racing event held in Greensboro, North Carolina. The event takes place in late November and features a variety of distances to accommodate different participants. The available race distances include:
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
- 5K
- 1 Mile Fun Run
The half marathon and 5K courses are USA Track & Field certified, making them suitable for official record-keeping and qualifying purposes. The routes are designed to be fast, with the half marathon course containing approximately 300 feet of total elevation gain. The 1 Mile Fun Run is an untimed distance that is intended for family participation.
Participants have different registration options, including standard registration and economy packages. Standard registration for the 13.1 miles and 5K distances includes a custom race shirt and a unique finisher medal. The economy options are available for those who prefer to participate in the race without receiving a shirt or medal. Virtual versions of the 13.1 miles and 5K are also offered for those who wish to complete the distance independently.
This event is part of the North Carolina Road Mega Medal Series, a multi-race puzzle series where participants can collect medals from different events. The race also partners with the organization A Simple Gesture to address food insecurity in the Greensboro area during the holiday season. The event location is situated at 600 Battleground Ave. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
