Jamestown Half Marathon
The Jamestown Rhode Race is a Half Marathon held on Conanicut Island in Jamestown, Rhode Island. The course circles nearly the entire island and offers views of Narragansett Bay and the Newport Pell Bridge. The route passes historic Watson Farm, the village of Jamestown, Mackeral Cove, windmills, estuaries and remaining farms.
The course runs on winding roads with one small unpaved section before mile 2 and a long incline around miles 9 and 10. The finish returns to Fort Getty. The official course limit for the half marathon is 3.5 hours. Aid stations are placed along the route and some will provide Gu energy gels, Nuun electrolyte drink, bananas and port-a-potties.
Event logistics include packet pick-up on the Friday before the race at Rhode Runner in Providence and on-site packet pick-up at Fort Getty on race morning. Parking for participants is at Fort Getty and access is limited to registered runners who can show confirmation at entry. Spectators are welcome on course but should follow local traffic and safety rules. Live runner tracking is available through the RaceJoy app and requires participants to carry a phone and activate tracking according to RaceJoy instructions.
