About

The Run the Bluegrass Half Marathon takes place in Lexington, Kentucky, in mid-May, at Talon Winery. The half marathon (13.1 miles), 10K and 5K all start at 7:00 a.m., and runners can choose a distance in a scenic setting in Kentucky's horse country.

Afterward, participants can enjoy local food and drinks, including offerings from the food trucks and the winery. The Bluegrass region has gently rolling land, which usually means more up and down than you expect, so a controlled start is wise. Mid-May temperatures can rise by late morning, making an early start and good hydration the keys to a comfortable finish.
