UConn Health Half Marathon, 10K & 5K
The event on Saturday, June 6, 2026 is centered on a two-loop half marathon course of 13.1 miles that runs along the Farmington River and through local farmlands. The race on Iron Horse includes shorter race distance options and a race day gathering with food and craft beer.
Distances available include:
- Half Marathon two-loop 13.1 miles along Farmington River and farmlands
- 10K
- 5K
- HMF FitKids options of 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, or 1 mile for ages 2 to 11
- Virtual Race option
All participants in the in-person distances receive a short-sleeve technical race shirt and a custom finisher medal. The event offers multi-race challenges for 5K and 10K series that include custom swag at each race and a commemorative series medal when the series is completed. A Connecticut Double option pairs this half marathon with a full marathon later in the season and awards an additional commemorative medal for completing both events.
Community and charity elements are part of the event. A Run For Good program lets participants select and support partner charities, and the HMF Can tent accepts nonperishable food donations to support a local school food pantry program. New membership tiers provide optional perks and member benefits for future events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
