Gare di Half Marathon vicino a Gantt

The Hartness Half Marathon & 5K takes place on the Hartness property in Greenville, South Carolina, situated near Pelham Road and Interstate 85. Participants can choose between a half marathon or a 5K. The course incorporates varied terrain beyond typical road miles, including pavement, trails, dirt roads, gravel roads, and grass fields. The route crosses the Hartness property and extends into its nature preserve, offering a mixed-surface run distinct from conventional city road races. The surfaces are maintained well, making the event accessible for beginners yet providing sufficient variety for competitive runners. The event has partnered with Set Up Events and has contributed to local causes such as Make-A-Wish South Carolina and A Child's Haven.

The Longest Night is an overnight trail and ultra race held at the 120-acre Preserve at Lakewood in Greenville, South Carolina, just before the winter solstice. All participants run on the same 1.5-mile grass loop, featuring wide paths and rolling hills. The distance completed depends on the number of laps a runner finishes: 34 laps for the 50-mile race, 21 for the 50K, 18 for the marathon, 9 for the half marathon, and 4 for the 10K. Each loop must be completed in under 25 minutes, making the race a test of endurance and pace management. The longer races commence around sunset and proceed through the night. The marathon, half marathon, and 10K start before dawn. The course loops back to a barn serving as the start/finish line, aid station, and personal staging area, providing runners a consistent base between laps. This is a lap-by-lap elimination format; failing to meet the pace cutoff results in disqualification. It is also a cup-less event, requiring runners to provide their own cup.

La Snowbird Challenge si corre a Riverwest Preserve e ti dà quattro opzioni di distanza: la 50k, la half marathon, la 5.2 miles o la Reindeer Relay. Ogni distanza si fa sullo stesso giro di 2.62-mile, quindi la giornata è tutta a base di giri ripetuti, non un percorso lineare. Chi fa la 50k continua a girare finché non copre la distanza ultra, mentre chi fa le distanze più corte o la staffetta si gode il percorso invernale in segmenti più ridotti. Upstate Race Series organizza questo evento con uno spirito un po' scanzonato per la corsa al freddo. Nella descrizione lo chiamano una corsa per "true winter wanderers" e un "frosty little proving ground", e capiscono chi magari preferirebbe temperature più miti. L'iscrizione include l'ingresso al parco, e a chi arriva danno medaglia e pettorale personalizzato. I primi 100 iscritti si beccano calze tecniche personalizzate, e la serie devolve anche donazioni a organizzazioni no-profit locali.

La Greenville Half Marathon & 5K è una gara point-to-point nell'Upstate South Carolina, organizzata dalla Upstate Race Series di Greenville. La mezza maratona parte dal Gateway Park a Travelers Rest e finisce in centro a Greenville, quindi devi tenere conto di due posti diversi, non è un giro unico. Il ritiro del pettorale lo puoi fare prima del giorno della gara al The Kroc Center a Greenville, mentre il giorno della gara, per la mezza, lo ritiri al Gateway Park.

The Knock On Wood Trail Run/Hike is a trail race held at Camp Spearhead within Pleasant Ridge County Park in Marietta, South Carolina.

Packet pickup begins at 7:00 AM near the main shelter. The half marathon has a 4-hour time limit. The 10K follows a loop course within the park. Half marathon participants will run the same trail-focused course for a longer distance. The race benefits Camp Spearhead, a camp serving children and adults with disabilities. Participants include those running or hiking to support the camp's mission. Awards are presented to the top three overall finishers and age group winners. The first 100 entrants will receive custom race socks.
