Wanderlust Half Marathon, 10k, 5k

Wanderlust Half Marathon is held in Fredericksburg on March 13, 2027, alongside a 10K and a 5K. All three distances share an 8:16 a.m. start, so the whole field is on course together from the first minute and the finish area stays busy from the early 5K arrivals through the last half marathon runners.

A single mass start suits runners who like company early on, though it also means the first mile will be crowded and you should hold your own pace rather than chase the 5K field. The 13.1 is the main event and rewards a 12-week build with a weekly long run and some steady-state work; the 10K is a good spring benchmark, and the 5K is short enough to enter on fitness alone.
