The Strider Half Marathon is our late summer Half Marathon. The course starts and finishes in Estabrook Park at the beer garden. Runners will enjoy a few miles around beautiful Estabrook Park before heading out onto the lovely and mostly shaded Oak Leak Trail bike path. Runners will return to the finish line at the Estabrook Park beer garden to enjoy a great post-race party with the famous hot breakfast, beverages, beer, and music! The race fits perfectly into many fall marathon build-up plans.
