Course Details
The half marathon is a loop course that uses a combination of dirt and back roads. The route includes a portion on the Meach Cove property, passes by Shelburne Farms, and features a stretch on Harbor Road with views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks.
Both the 5K and 10K courses are out-and-back routes that run along Harbor Road. The 5K course is described as relatively flat, while the 10K course includes a couple of hills.
Race Information
There is a 3.5-hour time limit for the entire event, ending at 11:30 AM. Roads will remain open to traffic, so runners are instructed to run against traffic and no more than two abreast. The use of baby joggers is not permitted.
Parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis at the Shelburne Field House, with overflow parking at the Shelburne Train Station and Shelburne Community School on Harbor Road.
