Roxbury Fall Classic
The Roxbury Fall Classic comprises three road races held in rural Roxbury, Connecticut, with start and finish at Hurlburt Park. All courses are hilly and run on a mix of paved and dirt roads used by the local Roxbury Races series. There are no refunds for cancellations or postponements.
Distances
- Half Marathon - 13.1 Miles
- Marathon - 26.2 Miles
- 50K - 50 kilometers
Course formats combine out-and-back sections and looped sections. The Half Marathon uses a Judds Bridge out-and-back of about 9.6 miles plus a Hemlock Loop of about 3.5 miles. The Marathon includes an 8.6-mile Judds Bridge out-and-back followed by five repetitions of a 3.52-mile Hemlock Loop. The 50K uses a 13.5-mile Judds Bridge out-and-back plus five repetitions of the 3.52-mile Hemlock Loop.
Aid stations are placed roughly every 2 to 3 miles and will offer water and Gatorade, with other items possible. Runners will pass the parking area near the start and may access personal food and drink there. Time limits are six hours for the marathon and half marathon and seven hours for the 50K. Marathon runners who expect to take more than six hours may start one hour early; early starters are not eligible for awards. Weather in mid-autumn can be unpredictable and may lead to postponement or cancellation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
