End of the Road takes runners onto the abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike near Waterfall, Pennsylvania. The main attractions are miles of old highway and long, dark tunnels. This October race weekend includes a half marathon and the One Tunnel 4 Miler, offering runners a choice between 13.1 miles or a shorter route that still passes through tunnels. The 4 Miler is also suitable for walkers and less experienced runners seeking a distance beyond a 5K but less than a half marathon. The half marathon features approximately five miles of tunnel running, followed by rolling rural roads, quiet pavement, mountain vistas, and peak autumn foliage. Runners will go through two turnpike tunnels illuminated by headlamps and glow sticks. This section runs on a road that was bypassed when traffic was rerouted from the old highway. The weekend also presents challenge options: the Road Rambler Challenge consists of two half marathons over consecutive days, while the Tunnel Traveler Challenge combines the half marathon with the 4 Miler. A pre-race Movie Night on the Turnpike enhances the vintage road ambiance.
