About
New River Marathon, Half Marathon & 5K runs over May 14 and 15, 2027, in Todd, North Carolina. The 5K opens the weekend on Friday at 6:30 p.m.; on Saturday the marathon (26.2 mi) starts at 7:30 a.m. and the half marathon (13.1 mi) at 8:15 a.m. No elevation gain is listed.
The Friday evening 5K is short enough to run the day before a marathon without costing you anything — treat it as a shake-out at conversational pace rather than a race, and it will do more good than a rest day. For the marathon itself, a 7:30 a.m. start in the North Carolina mountains in mid-May means a cool first hour and a warm finish: dress for the second half.
