About this race
Happy Half Half Marathon & 5k
We want to help put the FUN into running. Sometimes it is not just about the distance, it is how you get there. We want our participants to enjoy their run so there will be a few surprises out on course that will make you smile. And don’t forget about our awesome finisher’s medals and super soft race shirts.
The starts and finishes of both the Half Marathon & 5k are at Holiday Valley Resort in Ellicottville, NY. You could not ask for a nicer venue for a running race!
Make sure to bring your smiles to run the miles!
So what are you waiting for? Sign up today!!
