Dundalk Half Marathon & 10k

The Dundalk Half Marathon & 10K takes place in Dundalk, Maryland, in early April. Runners can choose between a 10K (6.2 miles) and a half marathon (13.1 miles), and both distances are run on roads. A spring road race in the mid-Atlantic often means cool starts and changeable weather, so a first-time half marathoner should plan a steady pace for the opening miles and have a layer ready for the start line. Baltimore sits just next door and offers plenty to see before or after the race, including the National Aquarium, the historic harbor, Fort McHenry, which is tied to the War of 1812, and the Baltimore Museum of Art.
