Event Overview
The Run Through the Pines Half Marathon & 5K takes place in Carver, Massachusetts. The event utilizes the scenic back roads of Myles Standish State Forest, starting and finishing at 194 Cranberry Rd, near the College Pond Parking Lot.
Participants can choose between two main distances:
- Half Marathon
- 5K
The Half Marathon course follows a route through the state forest roads. Half marathon participants receive a custom neck gaiter (buff), a pair of custom running socks, a finisher medal, and snacks. Awards are presented to the top three overall male and female finishers, as well as the top male and female winners in age categories ranging from 1-19 to 70+.
The 5K is an out and back route starting on Lower College Pond Road. Participants in this distance receive a custom neck gaiter and snacks. Similar to the longer distance, awards are granted to the top three overall finishers and top winners across various age groups.
Logistics
Both races utilize professional chip-timed bibs. Pre-race packet pickup is available on the day before the event at a retail location in Plymouth. On the morning of the event, bib pickup is available at the start line. While bibs can be collected before the race starts, other registration items are available for collection after the race concludes. Awards must be claimed in person on-site, as they are not sent by mail. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
