Hawthorn Half Day Relay & Ultra presented by Jones Fabrication

Hawthorn Half Day celebrates 20 years with 6-hour or 12-hour challenges. Compete solo or with a team on a scenic 5K loop of trail and road. There's no set distance, only time, movement, and community—whether you're a first-timer or seasoned ultrarunner, there’s a category for you. Runners Village and Race Headquarters keep you fueled all day with essentials. Expect plenty of chances to cheer on runners lap after lap, and look forward to our signature baked potato bar and pie. It's about showing up, sharing miles, and finding your rhythm together.
