The Automaster Shelburne Half Marathon & 5k/10k
The event in Shelburne, Vermont offers three distances: a half marathon plus 5K and 10K courses that begin and end at Shelburne Field House. The half marathon is a loop course that uses a combination of dirt and back roads, includes a portion on the Meach Cove property, passes Shelburne Farms, and follows a stretch of Harbor Road with views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks. The 5K and 10K are out-and-back courses along Harbor Road; the 5K is relatively flat while the 10K includes a couple of hills.
