Gare di Marathon vicino a Colonial Heights

The Haunted race series starts at Greenway Roslyn Landing Access in Colonial Heights, Virginia, offering four distances: 5K, 10K, half marathon, and marathon. As an October running event, the Halloween theme is integrated into its name and schedule. The race provides runners with a selection of a short road-race distance, a 10K, 13.1 miles, or the full 26.2 miles, all beginning from the same Colonial Heights start area. The listed distances are 5 km, 10 km, 21.1 km, and 42.2 km, suitable for both casual runners and those seeking a long fall race.

Race day at the Richmond Marathon series in Richmond, Virginia, includes pickle juice, junk food stops, bands, spirit groups, and party zones. Held each November, the event offers runners three distances on the same day: the Allianz Richmond Marathon, the CarMax Richmond Half Marathon, and the Richmond 8k. It is a large city running event, not a small local race, attracting over 20,000 runners across the three distances when fields are full. The half marathon begins downtown at 7th & Broad Street, one block from the 8k start, and covers 13.1 miles through Richmond neighborhoods and past historic sights. The marathon field is capped at 6,200 runners, the half marathon has sold out at 10,000, and the 8k has drawn about 5,000. The series, now in its 49th year, emphasizes runner support with course entertainment, active aid stations, a post-race party, training teams, finisher medals, technical shirts, and the half marathon's fleece finisher blanket.
