Semi-marathon de Cambridge

Cambridge Half Marathon is run in Cambridge, Maryland, in Dorchester County, on November 1, 2026. One format is on offer, a half marathon (13.1 miles), on a course through the historic streets of this town on Chesapeake Bay. The race benefits a charitable cause and highlights local heritage, including the memory of Harriet Tubman, who came from the region. No start time is listed.

Single-distance events tend to draw a field all working toward the same thing, which helps if you are chasing a time, because there is usually someone running your pace to sit behind. Thirteen miles asks for real preparation: give yourself 12 weeks, build the long run to about 11 miles, and add one weekly workout at goal half pace. If it is your first half, hold back through the opening three miles and aim to finish strong rather than fast.
