Area 13.1 Half Marathon

Area 13.1 Half Marathon is held on August 14, 2027, in Roswell, Fulton County, Georgia, as a night race on an extraterrestrial theme. Three distances are offered: the half marathon (13.1 mi), a 10K (6.2 mi) and a 5K (3.1 mi). Start times are not listed in our records.

Running a half marathon at night in a Georgia August is the only sensible way to schedule one, and the theme is the reward for the inconvenience. Practically: eat your main meal early in the afternoon, carry a light if the course leaves lit streets, and expect your pace to sit ten to twenty seconds a mile slower than in daylight simply because you see less of the road.
