About this run
Take on an adventure unlike any other in the Hampton Roads area. The Harwoods Half and 5K will take runners on a challenging journey through a variety of terrains, ultra-style aid stations, and maybe a little bit of mud. This is a super fun experience you don't want to miss out on! Both races start off of Oriana Road in Yorktown, across from the Harwoods Mill fishing area. Runners will park at the McReynolds Athletic Center, and be shuttled to the start line area. The half marathon will start at 8:30AM, and the 5K will begin at 9:15AM. There is a 4-hour time limit on the half marathon. Awards will be presented onsite to the top 3 male/female finishers in each event.
