Barns & Blooms Half Marathon

Barns & Blooms Half Marathon takes place on May 15, 2027, in Hamilton, Massachusetts. A single distance is on the program: the half marathon, 13.1 miles (21.1 km), starting at 8:00 a.m. No elevation gain is listed.

A one-distance race keeps the morning simple, but it also means every runner around you is covering the same ground — useful for pacing, since anyone you match at halfway is a fair reference for the second half. Mid-May in Essex County usually delivers ideal half-marathon weather, cool and still at 8:00 a.m., so plan your target on the assumption you will get it rather than allowing for heat.
