YMCA Harrisburg Half & 10K
The YMCA Harrisburg Half & 10K is an established running event held in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The course begins on City Island and follows a route through Riverfront Park in the downtown community. The race is designed with multiple participation options to accommodate various preferences and disciplines.
The event features the following distances:
- Half Marathon (13.1 miles)
- 10K (6.21 miles)
Participants can choose to complete these distances through specific categories. The 10K is open to both runners and walkers, while a dedicated category exists for those human-powered walkers completing the Half Marathon. The course is characterized by a lack of elevation, providing a flat surface for the duration of the event.
In addition to the in-person races on City Island, virtual options are available for both the Half Marathon and the 10K. Participants selecting the virtual format receive their race packets via mail and complete their distance independently. The event has operated for 20 years and takes place along the scenic riverfront of Central Pennsylvania. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
